Heading to Fitzgibbon's speech, printed in three columns. John Fitzgibbon (left), in legal wig and gown, stands resting his right hand on a table on which are documents. His right hand, holding a roll inscribed 'Propositions', points at Grattan, who is about to leave the room (which has no resemblance to the Irish House of Commons) by a door on the right. Between Fitzgibbon and Grattan, Flood lies on his back, saying, "I can-stand no longer". Grattan, holding a paper inscribed '30,000 £', says, "Alas poor Flood, I see you're down, so I'll e'en take my self off, with what I've got".   25 August 1785
