The Life and Times of Robert Emmet, Esq (Classic Reprint)

In presenting to the public, in a separate form, the Life of Robert Emmet, the only apology I feel it necessary to make for its re-appearance, is that the Publisher desires it, and that I believe his estimate of the interest taken in the subject of this volume is not an erroneous one. In the Appendix will be found some additional matter, in relation to the last illness and death, and illustrative of the character of that gentle being the amiable, the devoted, the idolized object of the affections of Robert Emmet. In the extracts from one of the letters that will be found there, we have not only the inmost thoughts, but the very traces of the pale sorrow-stricken features of the young, innocent, forlorn creature of a crushed spirit so shocked and driven in by the horrors of the fate of the object of her first and early love, and the desolation of all her fjiopes the poor, woe-begone wanderer from home he fond and faithful girl of the broken heart Sarah urran. There is not in I reland the memory of one fwomankind, that has such a hold on the affections fpeople, high arid low, as that of Sarah Curran.
