Book excerpt: Excerpt from James Stephens: Chief Organizer of the Irish Republic; Embracing an Account of the Origin and Progress of the Fenian Brotherhood; Being a Semi-Biographical Sketch of James Stephens, With the Story of His Arrest and Imprisonment; Also His Escape From the British Authoriti A "Biography of James Stephens" cannot yet be written, for his life has not yet terminated, and his work is not accomplished. Nor can the "History of Fenianism" be indited while the freedom of Ireland from British rule is an unaccomplished fact. He who shall write the one, must necessarily indite the other. At the present time, a brief sketch of the work performed by the one, and the progress made by the other, may serve to throw some light upon the condition of Ireland and assist in her redemption. There will, doubtless, be found some inaccuracies in this little book, but the material points of which it treats are substantially correct. In the absence of any official records to which to refer, the author has been compelled to rely mainly upon oral statements, and the current newspaper reports of the day for his facts.
