  1. a. The coachman dashed the horses into the soldiers, lashing them with his whip and calling aloud:
    "Make way for Councillor Maunsell".
    "What does this mean" called out the officer, angry and surprised.
    The carriage stopped, without speaking a word Maunsell got out and went towards the priest saying: "Is that you Father Fitzgerald".
    Turning to the officer of the soldiers he commanded them sternly to unbind the priest at once, or, if not it would be much the worse for him.
    "I order it in the name of the Lord Lieutenant" were the final words to the military.
    When the priest was set free he was brought by his deliverer to the church where the waiting people cheered both men.
