In the strenuous second reading debate in 1886, . when Mr. Gladstone first raised the question, Home Rule for all Ireland was the only issue before Parlia- ment. In 1893 I was present every day in the House when Home Rule was discussed, week after week, month after month, on second reading, com- mittee, and report, and I never heard from any quarter the faintest suggestion that any part of Ire- land should be excluded from the jurisdiction of the Irish Parliament. During the fierce agitation in Ulster in the autumn of 1912 there was never a hint of exclusion. The famous Covenant, so enthusiastically adopted, so universally signed by the Unionists of Ulster, was in effect a repudiation of the policy of exclusion. It is important for the right understanding of the present Irish situation to recall the pledge of mutual support contained in the Covenant :—
