 Cardinal Logue was known as the "grand old man" of the Roman Catholic church fin Ireland. He had a tiny frame but great courage. of which he frequently had need dur ing the period of strife in Ireland.
 One thing for which he was noted was his severe condemnation of modern dress.
 Condemned Women
 Ireland used to be proud of her women, but the dress, or want of dress, of women in the present day is scandal" he declared at one time There seems to be rivalry among them as to how little dress they can wear"
 The cardinal was the most ap- proachahle of mon. He invariably answered in person any telephone inquiry received while in Armagh. He always spent his annual holi- day at Carlingford, a pretty seaside resort in County Louth, where he had private intty from which he dived every morning, The civil war in 1922 interrupted his holiday and drove him to Armagh, his motor car being seized on the Way. Although he never complained officially, 1t was known that he deeply resented the action of the Ulster special con stable who twice held him up on the journey and searched his car for arms.
 Cardinal Logue's successor az archbishop of Armagh will be Arch bishop Patrick ODonnell who sue oesded the late prelate in the Raphoe Bishopric and was appointed his CO., hdutor in 1922. Archbishop O'Don- nell took an active part in the Irish nationalist movement, being treas. urer of the now defunct Irish league He was member of the Irish con.
