Doctor Nagle continued to fill his office until his appointment to a more lucrative one under the Whig Government.
The Eighty-Two Club which was projected in prison was finally organised in January, 1845.

The differences which manifested themselves in Conciliation Hall imperceptibly extended to this body.

The original members constituted the committee and were self-appointed.

The others had to submit to a ballot.

Some few were rejected, at which Mr.
O'Connell's friends took umbrage, and the rejected aspirants were sure to attribute their decision to their devotion to the "Liberator." Thus it happened that most objectionable candidates could not be resisted without incurring the imputation of opposing and thwarting the "saviour of his country." [Illustration: Charles Lavan Duffy (1846)] Mr.O'Connell himself, although he warmly approved of the club in the commencement, soon ceased to feel an interest in its proceedings.
