Great Repeal Meeting in Washington Hall, 1844. Meeting in New York: '...for the purpose of raising a fund for the payment of the fine of £2000 which Mr. [Daniel] O'Connell is sentenced to pay at the expiration of his imprisonment. From all quarters of the city, and from the adjoining villages, the Irish, chiefly of the lower classes, poured in by hundreds and thousands to the place of meeting. Long before the time of meeting the large hall was densely crowded, and the scene was diversified, animated, and picturesque in the extreme'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V.
