The list of subscriptions to the irish Republic Loan from the Catholic Archbishops:
and Bishops of the United States and of Ireland furnishes a notable demonstration of
the support which the Irish Republic has won from all creeds and classes. Many sub-
scriptions have also been received from. prominent Protestant and Hebrew clergymen.
The subscriptions from the Catholic hierarchy of both countries are also remarka-
ble, as indicating the confidence of the leaders of the Church in the lawful authority of
the elected government of Ireland.
Following is a partial list of these subscriptions:
