How she was awakened from that state; how new men and new movements arose; how fresh concessions were extracted from England; how in 1869 the Protestant State Church was disestablished and disendowed; how in 1870 a Land Act was passed, giving protection to industrious tenants; how in 1881 and 1885 other measures of Land Reform became law, and Household Suffrage was established; how finally, in 1893, the principle of Legislative Freedom was affirmed by the House of Commons-these are subjects which do not come within the scope of the present book. But it may in conclusion be said that, despite many misfortunes and disasters, the Irish people have, within the past sixty years, advanced slowly but surely on the road to material well-being, and national liberty.
