Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs and Correspondence of Viscount Castlereagh, Second Marquess of Londonderry, Vol. 1: The Irish Rebellion Having adverted, at the conclusion of the Memoir with which this Volume opens, to some of the circum stances which have contributed to delay, till so late a period, the publication of Documents illustrating the public and private character of my Brother, I need not here recur to that subject. Though conscious that my abilities are not adequate to the task which I have undertaken, I feel it to be a duty to rescue the name of Castlereagh from the calumnies and abuse which have been so long and so industriously cast upon it by political adversaries and pardoned rebels.
