"Her Excellency will at once see
what an effect it may have on stran-
gers when they are told that the
country needs such notion on the
part of the Viceroy's wife."
Mr. John Raymund, moving the
resolution, said he desired to see
consumption wiped out as much as
her Excellency, but there were in-
stances in the city of men being de-
prived of their employment in con •
sequence of all that had been said
in connection with this crusade,
carried on by the people who were
the tools of the British Government.
There was a factory in the city
where, in consequence of the cru- 1
sade, people were losing their em-
ployment daily if it became known
that they had the faintest taint of
consumption.
Mr. Anderson, who seconded the
resolution, said that Irish girls
would not be employed as servants
in England owing to the effect of
this crusade.
Mr. Mullett also said that, sneh
crusades were detrimental to Irish
people. An Irish girl in London
could not now get a situation if she
had a pale face.
