While in this country she was advised
that her home, Castle Dawson. in Myola

Mrs. Chichester said she was grieved TO
learn that many persons IN this coun-
try have the notion that the contro-
versy between the north and south Of
Ireland is due 10 difference in re-
ligion and have regarded the sighting
as religious warfare.
"Of course. the majority Of the Sim
Feiners are Roman Catholics" she said.
And It is equally true that the major
ity Of the people OF Ulster are Protes-
tants. Nevertheless, there are many
loyal Roman Catholics in Ulster. The
Lord Chief Justice Of Ulster. Denis
