This is the text of the speech delivered by George Francis Train on October 18, 1865, at the Philadelphia Academy of Music, before the Fenian Congress and Fenian Chiefs. In this address, Train passionately advocates for Irish independence and critiques English neutrality in the face of Irish oppression. The speech reflects the political climate of the time and the ongoing struggle for Irish self-governance, providing valuable insights into the Fenian movement and its supporters in America. Train's oration is a powerful example of 19th-century political rhetoric and a testament to the enduring quest for Irish freedom. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the historical relationship between Ireland, England, and the United States during a pivotal era.
