Full final year of Éire the official publishing organ of the Irish Republican Party which ran from January 20 1923 - October 25 1924 continuing with its successor publication Sinn Féin. "The Republican party was not unaware of the benefits to be derived from the publication of a newspaper reflecting its view. During its lifetime the organization brought out various weeklies. Éire: The Irish Nation had been started in January 1923 to give the Republican version of events in the closing stages of the Civil War. This proved a boon to the Reorganizing Committee in its efforts to build up the new parety in the summer of 1923. A second party paper Sinn Féin originally appeared as a daily news-sheet during the August 1923 general election campaign; but once the election was over it appeared only weekly. The new party had not been established very long before its leaders eager to counteract the anti-Sinn Féin bias of the three national dailies began planning the publication of a daily paper of their own with national circulation. They failed in their efforts to do this the principal reason being once again lack of capital. The failure of the party here may have indirectly hastened its decline. Control of a national daily would have forced Sinn Féin to spell out its aims and policies in a more realistic and precise fashion.At the end of 1924 Sinn Féin and Éire merged probably for circulation reasons to form a new weekly also with the title Sinn Féin. This paper in turn ceased publication and was replaced by a new weekly An Phoblacht in June 1925" Pynne Peter. The Third Sinn Fein Party: 1923-1926. p.39.

He began his artistic career as a copier of prints and a dealer in them and in 1760 gained a medal from the Society of Arts. The success of his first book A Picturesque Tour through Holland Brabant and part of France 1790 encouraged him to other work of the sort and in 1793 and 1793 appeared to other books Picturesque Views on the River Thames and Medway and later again on the Avon 1795 and Wye 1797 and posthumously the Severn 1824.

IRELAND Samuel
A View near Scheveling painted by DeVlieger
London: Published by Molteno & Co. No. 132 Pall Mall 1788. Etching and aquatint with hand-colour. Lovely contemporary colour. As usual text line is attached on verso of sheet. In excellent condition. Trimmed as usual and mounted on washline background. Mounting sheet is watermarked laid paper. Image size: 14 7/16 x 20 5/8 inches. A charming seaside view by Samuel Ireland the engraver and collector connected with the infamous Shakespeare forgeries.<br/> <br/>Ireland was a minor engraver and publisher who worked in London at the close of the eighteenth century. He was an avid art and manuscript collector and many of the works that he engraved and published were after pieces found in his own collection. This romantic view is after a painting by DeVlieger which was in Ireland's collection at the time. This image operates as both an example of the picturesque tradition in eighteenth century landscape prints and as an advertisement and promotion of Ireland's celebrated collection. With this image Ireland presents himself as both a serious engraver and a respected collector. Unfortunately today Ireland is better remembered for his involvement in the Shakespeare forgeries than for his evocative prints. Over a period of many years Ireland's son William Henry sold his father a series of forged manuscripts which he claimed to be written in Shakespeare's hand. Ireland who willingly trusted his son added these forgeries to his collection and presented them in an exhibition to the literary community who accepted them as genuine. The charade progressed so far that an invented play entitled 'Vortigern' which William Henry had written and presented as a missing work by Shakespeare was performed at Sheridan's Drury Lane theatre by some of the leading actors of the age. When the hoax was eventually discovered Ireland's reputation was ruined and his son was disgraced. This print is from the famed Oettingen-Wallerstein collection which was compiled over two centuries by various members of the royal household. The collection is known for its stunning impressions and the immaculate condition of its prints.<br/> <br/>Dictionary of National Biography; Lugt Les Marques de Collections Supplement 2715a.

He is less well known as a poet writer of gothic novels and histories. ------ His father Samuel Ireland was a successful publisher of travelogues collector of antiquities and collector of Shakespearian plays and relics. With no in the hand of Shakespeare documents. forgery would fill this void. ----- William Henry also became a collector of books. In many later recollections Ireland described his fascination with the works and the glorious death of the forger Thomas Chatterton and probably knew the Ossian poems of James Macpherson. When he was apprenticed to a mortgage lawyer Ireland began to experiment with blank genuinely old papers and forged signatures on them. Eventually he forged several documents until he was ready to present them to his father. ------- In December 1794 William told his father that he had discovered a cache of old documents belonging to an acquaintance who wanted to remain unnamed and that one of them was a deed with a signature of Shakespeare in it. He gave the document which he had of course made himself to his overjoyed father who had been looking for just that kind of signature for years. ----- Ireland first forged a letter that he claimed was written by Shakespeare expressing gratitude towards the Earl of Southampton for his patronage. ----- Ireland went on to make more findings a promissory note a written declaration of Protestant faith letters to Anne Hathaway with a lock of hair attached and to Queen Elizabeth all supposedly in Shakespeare's hand. He claimed that all came from the chest of the anonymous friend. He 'found' books with Shakespeare's notes in the margins and 'original' manuscripts for Hamlet and King Lear. The experts of the day authenticated them all. ----- On 24 December 1795 Samuel Ireland published his own book about the papers a lavishly illustrated and expensively produced set of facsimiles and transcriptions of the papers called Miscellaneous Papers and Legal Instruments under the Hand and Seal of William Shakespeare the book bears the publication date 1796. More people took interest in the matter and the plot began to unravel. ------- In 1795 Ireland became bolder and produced a whole new play Vortigern and Rowena. After extensive negotiations Irish playwright Richard Brinsley Sheridan acquired rights for the first production of the play at London's Drury Lane Theatre for £300 and a promise of half of all profits to the Irelands. ------- Sheridan and John Philip Kemble actor and manager of Drury Lane Theatre later claimed he had serious doubts about its authenticity; he also suggested that the play appear on April Fool's Day though Samuel Ireland objected and the play was moved to the next day. -------- Although the Shakespeare papers had prominent believers including James Boswell sceptics had questioned their authenticity from the beginning and as the premiere of Vortigern approached the press was filled with arguments over whether the papers were genuine or forgeries. -------- The play had only one performance and was not revived until 2008. wiki.

The father recorded many local traditions which he accepted as true including those concocted for his benefit according to Sidney Lee by John Jordan a Stratford poet who was his chief guide throughout his visit. ------------ In his pursuit of information about Shakespeare Ireland learned from some of the oldest inhabitants that manuscripts had been moved from Shakespeare's residence at New Place to Clopton House at the time of the Stratford fire. To Clopton House he went where he learned from the tenant that the manuscripts he was seeking had been destroyed only a week before. His disappointment was extreme. 'My God! Sir you are not aware of the loss which the world has sustained. Would to heaven I had arrived sooner!' ------Today he is best remembered today as the chief victim of the Ireland Shakespeare forgeries created by his son William Henry Ireland. But alas that is a tale for another day. ----------- Ref English Short Title Catalog t79991; Abbey Scenery 427. Cox III182.
