Recollection of 1796 97 Irish Unrest and French Expedition Debates
A Dublin Journal letter recounts Irish reactions to the 1796 Bantry Bay landing and the 1798 French expedition rumors. It cites Thomas Addis Bannier testimony, notes charges of Catholic loyalty and Protestant fear, and discusses the influence of United Irishmen, Lordlieutenant actions, and public notices in Dublin. The piece weighs rebellion, conciliatory policy, and sectarian blame in a turbulent era.
