Dr. DONNELLY, Lord Bishop of Clogher, the collection amounted to over \u00a3310. The names of the contributors who paid 5s. and upwards on this occasion and also the subscribers who formerly paid 10s. and upwards on Collecting Cards and whose names were not yet acknowledged, are here appended in separate lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Committee, on the part of the Congregation, hereby tender their sincere thanks to each contributor, but to 2 or 3 in particular, they wish to record their undying gratitude. First, to the Most Rev. Dr. DONNELLY, the Bishop of the Diocese, who, actuated by such kind paternal feelings for his suffering and isolated flock here, not only aids with his generous subscription with his valuable influence, and most of all, with his blessings and his prayers, but he has supplied to this locality a Church wherein to worship the God of all Gifts, the want of which house had been felt for centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second to him is that generous and noble-spirited young landlord, Hugh De Fellinburgh MONTGOMERY Esq., who not only bestowed, free for ever, this lovely site, but personally selected it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other is that gifted and learned orator and divine the Rev Father SMYTH of the Dominican House in Dublin, whose touching and eloquent appeal (in part) already appeared in the Morning News of the 26th ult. To the gentlemen who assisted in aiding the Rev. Chairman and Committee at taking the Collection especial thanks are due.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following are the Subscriptions &amp;c.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Most Rev. Dr. DONNELLY Lord Bishop Clogher<br>H.
