Here are images of newspaper articles for Clare-born Fr. Andrew O'Reilly (1837-1909), Msgr. P.J. McNamara (1844-1912), and Fr. Martin Hehir, well-known for heading Duquesne University but here is his photo in 1933 on the occasion of his 50th anniversary of entering the priesthood.

The involved newspapers were:
O'Reilly - 10 Sep 1909, p. 9, New York Times
McNamara - 16 Apr 1912, p. 13, New York Times
Hehir - 18 Nov 1933, p. 6, Pittsburg Post-Gazette (Pennsylvania)
