Hi Bernard,

A question about the Catholic characters in your books. I’ve been researching the whole thing, and if Catholic Emancipation – which allowed Catholics to join the army, among other things – only came in 1829, then how were Catholics like Harper able to join the army before that date? (I mean, they obviously were there, Penal Laws or not, before Emancipation had even been dreamed of).

Thanks

Isac
