Lord Kilgobbin is a novel written by Charles Lever. It tells the story of Lord Kilgobbin, an Irish nobleman who has fallen on hard times and is forced to sell his estate. The novel follows his attempts to regain his fortune and the support of his family and friends, including his daughter, Lady Kilgobbin, and his loyal servant, Tim Healy. Along the way, Lord Kilgobbin encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a group of American tourists, a scheming lawyer, and a mysterious stranger who may hold the key to his salvation. Set against the backdrop of Victorian Ireland, Lord Kilgobbin is a witty and engaging tale of family, friendship, and the struggle to overcome adversity.'There are a few words here, papa, ' cried Kate, opening the paper. 'In reply to the question of Sir Barnes Malone as to the late communications alleged to have passed between the head of the Irish Government and the head-centre of the Fenians, the Right Honourable the First Lord of the Treasury said, 'That the question would be more properly addressed to the noble lord the Secretary for Ireland, who was not then in the House. Meanwhile, sir, ' continued he, 'I will take on myself the responsibility of saying that in this, as in a variety of other cases, the zeal of party has greatly outstripped the discretion that should govern political warfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
