The case has been watched with
extreme interest throughout Britain
because it led to the first courtmartial
of its kind in England, the Sim Fein-
ers asserting that 1t was typical of the
tyranny of army rule in Ireland,
where, they say, wholesale arrests are
made, often on the flimsiest pretexts,
the prisoners being punched either
without trial or after long and undue
istays. .
The evidence disclosed that a COM
plete and fair investigation would have
exonerated Father O'Donnell of the
sedition charge forthwith and that his
long Imprisonment was not justified
even If the military authorities would
have justified his arrest.

Services of the
Pope During War

Iuo 1lsI VI July, 1910, the rope sent 10
the Bishop of Warsaw, through the
papal nuncio in Bavaria, the sum of
1900 marks for East Prussia. On the
18th of September of that year, the
Pope wrote to the same Bishop to Or
der the Peters pence, which was to
be sent to Rome, to be distributed
among the unfortunate people Of East
Prussia. On the 23d of April, 1916.
the Pope sent to the Cardinal-Arch-
bishop of Paris 100000 lire for the
suffering civilians of France. The sum
Of 100000 francs which he received
from the French bishops was distrib.
uted in the occupied districts of
France. In 1917 there were sent to
the "Union Fraternelle des Regions
Occupies" 10000 lire, and 5000 lire
were forwarded to Scissors. The
Bishop of Luxembourg received on
April 10, 1915, the sum Of 10000 lire
for the suffering people Of the grand
duchy.
Help for Poland.
Many were the contributions sent
by the Father of Christepdom to af-
nicted Poland. On the 18th Of March,
1915, he forwarded 10000 lire, the Col.
lege Of Cardinals sent 5000. On April
8 Of the, same year he forwarded
another sum Of $4,000 lire, and to the
Central Committee for Polish Aid,"
he sent 10000 lire. He warmly en-.
dorsed circular letter of the Polish
Bishops and invited all the Bishops of
the world to take up collections for the
Poles and to exhorter. This special COL
lection was taken up on November 81,
1915, and amounted to sum Of nearly
100000 francs, an eloquent proof of
the generosity Of the Catholic people.
PapaI Institutions Given to Wounded.
In Rome itself the Holy Father gave
over for this purpose the 1nfirmary of
st. Marta to the Order Of Malta. Other
buildings like the College Of st. Leo,
the German College, the Technical
School "De Merode" and the "Massimo
allie Terme" were also used for the
same service. Outside of Rome, the
Papal Provincial Seminary of st. Louis
in Posilipo, of Calabria in Catanzaro,
and the Papal College of st. Thomas of
Aquin in Cuneo, were opened to the
sick and wounded soldiers.
This list, however, is incomplete. In
all Italian dioceses the seminaries
were used as infirmaries, and so, too,
were many private ecclesiastical in
stitutiOns.
Bureaus for Prisoners.
After the first great battles had been
fought in August and September, 1914,
upon the fields of Belgium and north
ern France, numerous letters were sent
to Rome from Bishops, priests and
families. They contained inquiries con-
cerning soldiers, whose whereabouts
could not be determined. Some Of the
petitions for help IN this matter were
sent to Cardinals, but the largest part
came to the Holy Father himself. espe-
cially those from France and Belgium.
The Holy Father read them all and
took care to make inquiries through
the secretary Of state. Towards the

Summary Shows Tremendous Work
Carried on by Holy Father in Aiding
Prisoners, Sick, Wounded and op-
pressed Peoples.

The position of the Vatican during
the entire period of the war has been
q peculiarly trying one. While there
were some papers like the London
Times, which loudly asserted that the
Papacy had forever lost it's prestige
because it did not forthwith espouse
the cause of the Allies, the Catholic
press, with saner outlook upon the
situation, faithfully instructed the
world on. the Popes splendid efforts to
alleviate the horrors Of war. In fact,
the persistent, and, in most cases, sue
cessful work of the Vatican officials to
do all in their power to bring hope
and help to the victims of the catas-
trophe, will form one of the inspiring
chapters of the future history of the
great war.
Varied Assistance Rendered.
It would require too much space to
point out in detail the various kinds of
services freely offered by the agencies
established by the Holy Father to as
sist the victims Of war. There were
arrangements made to exchange dis
abled prisoners of war and to release
and exchange civil prisoners. Efforts
were made to establish communica-
tion by letter with the occupied dis
tricts.. The Pope succeeded in secur-
ing Sunday as day Of visit for war
prisoners. Arrangements were con-
cluded for cessation Of hostilities in
order to bury the dead on the battle
fields. In numerous instances the Holy
Father was instrumental in securing
a reversal of the death sentence
passed upon individuals. He assisted
materially in supplying the civilian
population of invaded districts with
food. The spiritual welfare Of all the
armies was of special concern to him
and he made many concessions to
army chaplains.
Help for Belgium.
AS the world is most impressed by
material aid given to those In afflic-
tion, let us begin with an item of this
kind. On December 10,1914, the Holy
Father sent his first contribution OF
10000 lire to Belgium. The College OF
Cardinals added 5000. On April s,
1915, the Holy Father made further
contribution of $4,000 lire to that coun-
try, and on June he forwarded 10000
lire for the re-establishment Of wor-
ship. On October 1, 1915, collections
were taken up in Spain for the victims
Of war and the amount collected was
donated to the Pope, who set aside
10000 lire for the entire sum for Bel
GUM. For the restoration Of the Lou
vain University Library the Pope
promised his assistance and offered az
gift all the publications Of the Vati-
can Library, as well as other works
which the Vatican Library could
spare.
Aims Sent to Prisoners.
On the 25th Of December, 1914, col
lections were taken up in the German
dioceses, and the Holy Father sent
25, 900 marks of the amount realized to
