About this book
Valentine M'Clutchy, The Irish Agent is by William Carleton. The contents list, among others, chapters called Solomon M'Slime, a Religious Attorney, Poll Doolin, the Child Cadger, and A Dutiful Grandson and a Respectable Grandmother. The text says that Topertoe was consequently not only the very man to sell his country, but to sell it at the highest price, and to be afterwards the first to laugh, as he did, at his own corruption.
A speaker says that Hickman, the former agent, was the first to whom he presented Lord Cumber's letter, and calls the former agent a gentleman by birth, education, and property, a man of a large and a liberal mind. A speaker refers to letters which passed between the person addressed and Mr. M'Slime, here, upon the subject of Messrs. M'Loughlin and Harman's property.
