The Ghost Of Parnell

Sir, - "Parnell loved a lass and the bishops condemned" (Yeats).

A bishop loved a lass and the bishops forgave.

Now in view of the happy outcome in the latter case, will the Roman Catholic hierarchy at last humbly beg pardon of the ghost of poor, dear Parnell? - Yours, etc., Mary Kotsonouris,
