CHRONOLOGY.

1689. King James II. landed at Kinsale in Ireland, with an army he

brought from France, to assist in the recovery of the throne he had

abdicated. He afterwards made a public entry into Dublin, and besieged

Londonderry, which vigorously defended itself under the rev. George

Walker, and suffered dreadful privations till it was relieved, and the

siege abandoned. He then held a parliament in Dublin, coined base money,

and committed various outrages, till William III. signally defeated him

at the battle of the Boyne, and compelled him to fly to France.
