Feargus O'Connor. A chartist who took the fight against the establishment into the House of Commons. Founded the National Land Company and struggled fiercely fot the passage of the Peoples Charter. His funeral was attended by 40,000 people.

See there the cottage, labour's own abode,
The pleasant doorway on the cheerful road,
The airy floor, the roof from storms secure,
The merry fireside and the shelter sure,
And, dearest charm of all, the grateful soil,
That bears its produce for the hands that toil
