Movers and Seconders of the Address: the Earl of Fingall, 1870. Engraving from a photograph by John Watkins. The seconder of the Address in the Lords may be said to have represented the other sister kingdom, inasmuch as he was the Right Hon. Arthur James Plunkett, Earl of Fingall, Baron Killeen, in the Peerage of Ireland, and Baron Fingall, in that of the United Kingdom, by which title he sits in the Upper House. His Lordship, who is the tenth Earl, was born in 1819. He entered the Army in 1832, his regiment being the 8th Hussars. He became a Captain in 1846, and a Major in 1856, having served in the Crimean War, particularly in the expedition to Kertch, as well as generally in the operations before Sebastopol. His Lordship is still a young member of the House of Peers, and he may be said to have entered on his Parliamentary noviciate by seconding the Address, though there is some recollection of his having spoken in his place before. He, too, discharged the special duty allotted to him neatly, and with tact and discretion, and justified the choice which was made of him for that duty. From "Illustrated London News", 1870.
