Catalpa rescue

They didn't achieve very much.

I would put their successes as one was the famous escape of James Stevens, the founder, orchestrated as it happened by Devoy and Breslin, the two people who featured in the Catalpa rescue orchestrated by them in 1865, then the Catalpa rescue, fabulous rescue, and then one had to wait for four decades afterwards when Devoy, steadfast man, supported the growth of the IRB or rebirth of the IRB in Dublin and supported with money and liaised with the Germans about arms, which resulted in the 1916 rebellion, which then a few years later led to independence.

So that, Devoy, by doing that, really achieved a concrete result.

So I put the Fenian successes as three different things culminating with 1916.
