Excerpt from The Story of the Irish Society: Being a Brief Historical Account of the Foundation and Work of the Honourable the Irish Society of LondonThe inhabitants of Londonderry readily acknowledge their indebtedness to the Society for the possession of a singularly beautiful and appropriately furnished Guildhall, a toll-free bridge and many great public improvements only partly set out in the following pages. The same conditions prevail at Coleraine, as a perusal of the accompanying details will exemplify.The benefactions of the Society embrace not only important public institutions but many organised minor societies for the relief of distress as well as for the encouragement of the higher branches of adult education and also for stimulating some acquaintance with music, singing and other easily acquired homely arts some little familiarity with which may help to brighten domestic surroundings.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
