Feardana. Robert Dwyer Joyce, M.D.
About twenty yeais ago tlie nom de plume "Feardana "was a household woid among the reading poition of the Irish people. It was the veil behind which the young poet modestly hid his individuality. He was then a medical student at the Queen's University The "Harp" and other periodicals published in Dublin and Coik at this time, and for several yeais, contained patriotic songs, short sketches, and historic bal- lads from his pen. " The Blacksmith of Limer- ick," which hewiote in the confused days suc- ceeding '48, giew almost instantly Into popular favor, and helped much to create and foster a new soul in Ireland. About that time, perhaps later, the "London Universal News," then edited by the lamented JohnF O'Donnell (" Caviare"), a distinguished poet and hteiateur himself, in reviewing Joyce's "Ballads, Komanccs, and Songs" published in book form by Duffy of Dublm hailed Joyce as "The Scott of Ire- land," a distinctive title most eminently deserved and deservedly bestowed. The book attained an extensive cnculation, especially in the south of Ireland, where were located most of the stmmg scenes, and incidents, and legendary and tiadi- tional reminiscences on which the "Ballads, Romances, and Songs" were founded. There is little doubt that Joyce's writings at that period had a powerful influence in developing the national spirit which, a few ycais later on, became so powerful and defiant undei the name of " Fenianism," the spirit of physical resistance to foreign rule. The "Dublin Weekly lllus- trated News," established less than 20 years ago, contained many a lacy stoiy, sketch, and poem from his pen. A little Jatei the doctor, who was then Professor of English Literatuie in the Prc- piiatory College of the Catholic University, Dublin, published " The Squne of Castleton," an historical no; *!, the scene of which was laid in the south of Ireland, as a seiial m the " Dub- lm Irishman." It "vuis subsequently republished in book foira. When the " Dublin Irish People," the Fenian organ, was established in 1365, Dr. Joyce, undei the nom de plume "Merulan" (the Wizard) became, by request of the leaders of the National party in Dublin, one of the regu- lar contributors, and his fiery, patriotic, and able pen was recognized as a powerful aid in sustaining the grand spirit of patriotic resolve which was then lampant and defiant throughout the land.
