The present is the fourth volume of the JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN-IRISH
HISTORICAL SOCIETY. This volume, like each of those preceding it, is
complete in itself. It contains a record of the organization since the
third volume of the JOURNAL was issued, and presents a large amount of
additional material within our line of work. The Society continues to
maintain the high standard established by its founders, and is doing a
great amount of good in its chosen field. The organization has already
secured a place in the front rank of American historical societies, and
enjoys the most cordial relations with organizations long established.
