Hugh Hanna
Portrait by Augustus George Whichelo, 1876.
Born 21 February 1821 Died 3 February 1892 (aged 71) Occupation Pastor Theological work Tradition or movement Presbyterian
Hugh Hanna (21 February 1821 – 3 February 1892), nicknamed Roaring Hanna , was an Presbyterian minister in Belfast known for his anti-Catholicism .[1]
Biography [ edit ]
Born in Dromara , County Down , Hanna studied at Bullick's Academy in Belfast before becoming a draper . He was inspired by Josias Wilson to become a Sunday school teacher, then a full-time teacher at a religious school. During this period, he studied at the Belfast Academical Institution . In 1847, he decided to become a minister of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland . He began missionary work in north Belfast in 1851, founding a congregation in Berry Street, which moved to St Enoch's in Carlisle Circus in 1872.[2]
Removal of the damaged statue in 1970.
Hanna organised a large number of both national and Sunday schools; in 1880, he was made a Commissioner of national education. He also spoke widely at religious revivalist meetings. In 1857, the Church of Ireland was asked by local magistrates to postpone open-air preaching, in an effort to calm sectarian tensions. Hanna, with the encouragement of Henry Cooke , objected to this, and preached in public, with widespread riots ensuing. A more successful rally followed in 1859, when Hanna addressed over 20,000 people in the Belfast Botanic Gardens . He fiercely opposed the Home Rule Bill of 1886, claiming that Roman Catholic police officers had been brought from other parts of Ireland in an attempt to intimidate Protestant opinion.[2]
A black marble statue to Hanna was erected in Carlisle Circus in 1894;[2] Irish Republican Army bomb in 1970.[3] [4]
