JAMES HoBAN, Esq, pronounced March 9th,
1916, before the Irving Literary Association
of Washington City. BY John G. Norris
This is neatly printed little pamphlet Of l6
pages. The Eulogy appears well in print,

but will give one brief extract:

and influence were powerfully exercised IN the
support and furlherance Of the Temperance
reform; and from his accurate knowledge Of
