Who raised aloft the banner of God's mercy, And walked beneath it on a toilsome way; Gathering loyal hearts and hands to aid her In bringing sunshine to the darkest day. Through sordid streets, through laneways black with sorrow She went upon her way with holy calm, To bring to many a pain demented sufferer The peace of God, and hope and soothing balm. No load of toil too heavy for her shoulders, No pang of pain too piercing to endure. Two guiding stars shone all the way before her; God's mercy and the service of the poor. God bless her name! God bless the flowers she planted, And raise them up in beauty and in grace, To guide His poor along the wide world's highways, And lead them to the sunshine of His face. Cod speed the day, with souls she saved rejoicing Through all the spaces far from sky to sod, When Mother Mary Catherine MacAuley Is welcomed 'mong the holy saints of God! B. O'Higgins 9 ADDRESS OF THE MOST REVEREND JOSEPH A. CARROLL, D.D., DIOCESAN ADMINISTRATOR ON THE OCCASION OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE BOARD OF MANAGEMENT HELD ON THE 20TH OCTOBER, 1987. I am very happy to be with you this afternoon for your annual general meeting. It is one of the big occasions of the year and it is of highly practical importance for the smooth administration of the hospital. This year, the meeting has an edge of sadness. You must all miss the gracious presence of the late Archbishop of Dublin. Archbishop McNamara was greatly devoted to the hospital and he took an active interest in its progress. During his tragically short term of office, he attended two annual general meetings and spoke at them, and he also attended the Alton Prize Dinner, as well as the study day. He knew what it means to be ill, and to be terminally ill, at that. Hence, his special care for the sick and his admiration for all who serve the sick. He was a witness to us all on how to live the Christian life, and he was a witness to us all on how to die. May he rest in peace. I have had a glance through your annual report for 1986. A glance is sufficient to convince one of the size and complexity of this great establishment, of the wide scope of its activities and of the impressive range of talent and experience and skill at its command. I should like to congratulate all those, who in so many different ways, have contributed to the thriving condition of the hospital. In particular, I should like to congratulate and thank the Board of Management, who have overall responsibility for the welfare of the hospital. It may be permitted to mention, in particular, the Deputy Chairman, Professor Tom Murphy. He is a worthy successor of the late Mr. Joe O'Hanlon of happy memory. It was characteristic of Professor Murphy to accept this position in a spirit of generous service to the community. He is the right man to face up to the serious challenges that will be facing the hospital in the immediate future.

This INTO publication describes Catherine Mahon's involvement within the INTO during the years 1906-1920. Of the many women during the period who were committed activists Catherine was the most outstanding. Not only did she fight for equality issues such as equal pay and representation for women on the INTO Central Executive Committee, but she set the INTO on a course of expansion with her recruit­ ment drive, and led the INTO to affirm its position as an independent, rep­ resentative body.
