"In spite of all attempts on the part
of the government and the public to ig
nore the facts, the vital matter of the
union between Great Britain and Ire
land is hurrying to a crisis. The Ul
sterman have irrevocably made up
their minds not to obey a parliament
seated in Dublin, and that they will
not be coerced into doing so without
resisting by force of arms. The league
expects to show the government that
it is not only Ulster but every union
ist throughout all England who are op
posed to this so-called Home Rule."
Following is the form of an appeal
sent out from the league's headquar
ters: "It is quite clear that the men of
Ulster are not fighting only for their
own liberties. Ulster will be the field
on which the privileges of the whole
nation itself will be lost or won.
"We therefore appeal to all British
citizens who sympathize with Ulster.
and who value their own freedom, to
join this league that lias been formed
to support the men of Ulster in the
great struggle that lies before them."
