Excerpt from Irish Church Question: Speech Delivered in the House of Commons on March 19, 1869 Mr. Speaker, There are in Ireland three great religious denominations - the Protestant Episcopalian, the Roman Catholic, and the Presbyterian. These three denominations are so pre-eminent, not only in comparison with others, but intrinsically in themselves, in numbers, in intellectual cultivation, in social power and influence, as to induce the Dean of Westminster to view them as three Churches co-extensive with three nations, English Scotch and Irish in their origin, inhabiting the same country. Of these three Churches one only, the Protestant Episcopalian Church, possesses separate property derived from public sources. The Presbyterian Church derives an income from an annual grant out of the revenues of the Imperial Treasury.
