Pension list and royal appointments provoke Irish discontent
In a caustic survey of the pension roll, the piece denounces allocations to Crifian Shroder, Catherine Talbot, Lady Kilmanfrey, and other figures, while praising Dublin's patriotic society and railing at lavish grants. It traces ministers, courtiers, and foreign generals' pay, lampooning nobility and noting disputes over annuities, with references to Ireland’s political and economic climate and a digressive critique of the era's governance.
