INTRODUCTION.
The project of holding a Convention representative
of the Unionists of the Provinces of Lcinster, Munstcr,
and Connaught, was first discussed at a meeting of
the Council of the Irish Unionist Alliance, held on
the 28th of April, 1892. At this meeting, after full
and careful consideration, it \vas resolved : '' That
this Council approves of holding a Meeting or Con-
vention in Dublin for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on Home Rule, and that it be referred to the
Executive Committee to consider, as early as possible,
whether it is practicable, and if so, to carry it out."
The Executive Committee ot the Alliance met on
the 3Oth of April, and, having considered the foregoing
resolution, came to the conclusion that it was practic-
able to hold such a Convention, and decided to
summon a Conference of leading Unionists in the three
Southern Provinces of Ireland for the purpose of taking
steps to cany the project to a successful issue.
This Conference met on the iSth May, under the
presidency of the Earl of Fingall, and was very
largely attended. The decision to hold a Conference
was ratified, the Declaration to be submitted to it
(which will be found on page 61), was approved,
and General and Executive Committees were appointed
to carry cut the details.
The Executive Committee of the Convention
determined at its first meeting that the Convention
should be a gathering of the most representative
character. The largest halls in Dublin were imme-
diately secured, and special .steps were taken to
increase the seating accommodation to the utmost
capacity. The number of delegates from each Parlia-
mentary Division in the three Southern Provinces was
strictly apportioned to the estimated loyalist strength
of each constituency. The project, which had the hearty
support of the Unionist Press, was enthusiastically
taken tip by the local Unionist organizations through-
out the country, and it very soon became apparent
that the Leinster Hall premises, although the largest
that could be had, were utterly inadequate for the
accommodation of those who were anxious to be
present.
Of the success of the Convention itself it is needless
to say anything here. That a Convention of such a
character could, at a month's notice, beheld, bringing
together the scattered Loyalists of the South and West
of Ireland, was a fact which could not but impress
itself on public attention. Its importance was
full\- acknowledged, and its purpose was ratified
in the political manifesto issued by Lord Salisbury
on the eve of the General Election of 1892.
This volume contains a carefully revised report of
the speeches delivered in support of the various
resolutions, the full text of the more important
letters received from distinguished persons who were
unable to attend, and of the numerous telegrams of
sympathy from Unionist organizations in Great Britain,
together with lists of the delegates from the various
constituencies who were present at the Convention.
It is offered by the Executive Committee to each
delegate as a souvenir of an unique and important
event in the historv of Irish, Unionism.

INTRODUCTION.
The project of holding a Convention representative
of the Unionists of the Provinces of Lcinster, Munstcr,
and Connaught, was first discussed at a meeting of
the Council of the Irish Unionist Alliance, held on
the 28th of April, 1892. At this meeting, after full
and careful consideration, it \vas resolved : '' That
this Council approves of holding a Meeting or Con-
vention in Dublin for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on Home Rule, and that it be referred to the
Executive Committee to consider, as early as possible,
whether it is practicable, and if so, to carry it out."
The Executive Committee ot the Alliance met on
the 3Oth of April, and, having considered the foregoing
resolution, came to the conclusion that it was practic-
able to hold such a Convention, and decided to
summon a Conference of leading Unionists in the three
Southern Provinces of Ireland for the purpose of taking
steps to cany the project to a successful issue.
This Conference met on the iSth May, under the
presidency of the Earl of Fingall, and was very
largely attended. The decision to hold a Conference
was ratified, the Declaration to be submitted to it
(which will be found on page 61), was approved,
and General and Executive Committees were appointed
to carry cut the details.
The Executive Committee of the Convention
determined at its first meeting that the Convention
should be a gathering of the most representative
character. The largest halls in Dublin were imme-
diately secured, and special .steps were taken to
increase the seating accommodation to the utmost
capacity. The number of delegates from each Parlia-
mentary Division in the three Southern Provinces was
strictly apportioned to the estimated loyalist strength
of each constituency. The project, which had the hearty
support of the Unionist Press, was enthusiastically
taken tip by the local Unionist organizations through-
out the country, and it very soon became apparent
that the Leinster Hall premises, although the largest
that could be had, were utterly inadequate for the
accommodation of those who were anxious to be
present.
Of the success of the Convention itself it is needless
to say anything here. That a Convention of such a
character could, at a month's notice, beheld, bringing
together the scattered Loyalists of the South and West
of Ireland, was a fact which could not but impress
itself on public attention. Its importance was
full\- acknowledged, and its purpose was ratified
in the political manifesto issued by Lord Salisbury
on the eve of the General Election of 1892.
This volume contains a carefully revised report of
the speeches delivered in support of the various
resolutions, the full text of the more important
letters received from distinguished persons who were
unable to attend, and of the numerous telegrams of
sympathy from Unionist organizations in Great Britain,
together with lists of the delegates from the various
constituencies who were present at the Convention.
It is offered by the Executive Committee to each
delegate as a souvenir of an unique and important
event in the historv of Irish, Unionism.
