Humble Dublin Address on Religion and Oh Allainces
The Proestant dissents in Dublin present a Loyal Address to Queen Anne through the Earl of Pembroke, pledging support for the Protestant establishment, defending the throne against the pretended Prince of Wales, and urging repeal of a late Ireland Act seen as weakening Protestant rights amid fears of native rebellion and foreign influence. Walter Stephens introduces the document, outlining vows to defend government and church against insurrection and Popery, while calling for unity and vigilance.
