Priest Says British
Violated His Rights
AS Citizen of u. s.
Declares Soldiers Invaded
His Fathers Home i'm Erin
and ignored His Protests !;
Will Complain to Colby

a story of i'll treatment at the hands
OF British soldiers, who raided his
fathers home in Limerick a week ago,
was told yesterday by the REV. Michael
M. English, Roman Catholic priest. Of
Whitehall, Mont, who arrived here from
Queenstown on the Cunard liner
kaiserin Auguste Victoria.
Father English said that he is an
American citizen and that neither he
even remotely identified with the Sim
Fein movement.
lie SAID that the treatment accorded
him by British soldiery had encroached
far beyond the lines of reason and
that his rights as an American citizen
had been violated by the British au-
thorities. He added he would lay the
matter at once before Senator Thomas
j. Walsh, of Montana, in the hope Of
presenting his protest to Secretary Of
State Colby.
II went abroad about four months ago."
said Father English, 81 was accom-
panied by my brother, Patrick, who is
not an American citizen, and was en-
ployed by the Anaconda Copper Com
pany, of Butte, Mont. After a trip on
the Continent, we went to the home Of
our parents at Limerick, where we
stayed three months. My father is an
c1ueTly, TeClrcQ FARMER.
HE always has shruhk from political
activity, and never had any dealing
with the Sim Fein crowd. On the eve
of our departure from Queenstown to
board the Kaiserin lily fathers home
was visited by q detachment of British
soldiers, armed with pistols, hand
grenades and machine guns, They were
led by young lieutenant, who asked
for me and my brother and ordered US
to open up our baggage. I informed
him that | was an American citizen
and asked by what authority he made
such a demand.
BY this authority. And I advise you
to keep quiet
"By his orders the soldiers ran
sacked our baggage and spent three
hours tearing up carpets in my fathers
home and searching the house from Gel
lar to garnet. When they left they
took my brother with them, saying he
was under arrest and might be shot"
Father English was accompanied by
three other priests-the Rev. Thomas
O'Dowd, Of East Millinocket, Me-; the
Rey. N. N. Grace, Of St. Joseph, Mo-,
and the Rev. D. j. Ryan, of Davenport,
Iowa. On the run across the Atlantic
the four clergymen were requested by
the steerage passengers to address
them and, attend concert they we've
giving for the benefit of Irish prisoners
of war.
In the steerage the priests found
themselves in the midst Of lively
Sim Fein assemblage, and word was
sent to them by a committee of cabin
passengers to return to the saloon COM
partment. Thereafter no cabin passen-
gers were permitted to enter the steer
age quarters.
