Mr. O'Connell, in his triumphal car, 1844. Crowds in Dublin, Ireland, celebrate the release from prison of nationalist politician. 'At length Mr. O'[was] seen ascending the triumphal car; and then came forth a shout, so loud, so long, so vehement, and so enthusiastic, that even the man of firmest nerve must for the moment have felt himself shaken by it.

From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
