Evidence:
"An Irish nationalist annotating the autobiographical Life of Theobald Wolfe Tone, the Founder of the 'United Irishmen' (1845) identifies the pseudonymous author of the 'Dedication'' ... but is also moved to register his views about the history of his country ...[ eg 'The Irish Aristocracy always opposed to the independence of Ireland ...'] ... (In fact the spirit of these annotations is so strongly engaged that a later owner found it necessary to censor them: on several pages words are scribbled through and rewritten ...)"
