Denis Kilbride (September 1848 – 24 October 1924) was an Irish nationalist politician, who as member of the Irish Parliamentary Party represented South Kerry (1887–1895), and North Galway (1895–1900) and South Kildare (1903–1918) as a Member of Parliament (MP) in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. He was educated at Clongowes Wood.[1] He was evicted, along with other subtenants of the 5th Marquess of Lansdowne, was evicted from his {{convert|500|acre|km2|adj=on}} holding during the Luggacurran evictions, Stradbally, County Laois, in March 1887.[2] Kilbride's rent was 760 pounds a year, although the holding was valued at only 450. Although he was a large tenant, he and other tenants adopted the Plan of Campaign.[3] To raise awareness of the evictions, Kilbride travelled with William O'Brien to Canada, where the Marquess of Lansdowne was governor general, and the USA.[4] In August 1902, he was charged under the Offences against the Person Act 1861 with incitement to murder - during the course of a speech against an eviction - of Major-General Devinish Meares.[5] That December, he was found guilty and sentenced to eight months' imprisonment.[6] After the passing of the Evicted Tenants Act, 1908, some of this holding, but not his house, was returned to him.[7] He died at his residence in Luggacurran in 1924 aged 76 and was buried in Clopook cemetery.
