(Foreword, by Bruce Arnold) One day in 1972, in a Dublin psychiatric hospital, a young woman recovering from a suicide attempt was suddenly overcome by hysterical panic. Its cause was found to be the entry into her ward of a nun. (Prologue) The ground floor of the Orphanage was built over a basement, consisted of a laundry, fuel store, refectory, kitchen and a corridor with a wooden staircase. | |

One answer to Brother Gleeson's disingenuous musings can be found in the words of Jim Beresford, a 'former child prisoner at Artane' and a researcher for the organization, Irish Survivors of Child Abuse: "Secrecy is the Irish disease' he says. Child abuse thrives on secrecy. The inevitable result of paying for each child, rather than funding of each institution, was that it encouraged the school administrators to have as many children as possible committed to their care. Backed by the Department of Education, the Orders also combatted suggestions that it would be better for impoverished families to be given financial assistance rather than to be broken up. In fact, it was poverty, in many guises and for many reasons, which was the fundamental and primary cause for detention of children in Ireland's Industrial Schools. The Church was anti socialist, opposed to state assistance to the poor, and accommodating towards the Fascist regimes of Spain and Portugal. The number of priests doubles, and despite the Church's ambivalent loyalty during the birth of the new state, it had become a formidable and all-pervading independent power that few dare to defy. [...] It had become the single wealthiest organization in the State, paying neither taxes nor rates, and was, in effect, a state within a state. All the people to whom we spoke in the town, and all the girls we met who had spent their childhood in the orphanage, both before and after the fire, always had the same answer. They said that the first reaction of the Sisters, before they realized the seriousness of the situation, was to prevent themselves or the girls being seen in their nightwear. For this reason, it was believed, the girls were to be kept out of the way, and Miss O'Reilly was instructed to leave them in the dormitory. This pernicious secrecy, it emerged through the research of a lawyer in the United States, had actually been ordered in a secret document, Crimine Solicitationies, which came from the Vatican in 1962, bearing Pope John XXIII's seal, and was distributed to bishops around the world, instructing them in a policy of strictest secrecy in dealing with allegations of sexual abuse. Almost universally throughout the industrial school system -- which at its most extensive, had several thousand boys and girls in what would now be called "care" -- the administration of the children's needs was seriously defective. They were always hungry, malnourished, and in some cases they literally starved. It has been said by the religious orders which managed these places that "times were hard". This was emphasized in the context of times being hard generally in the country, through poverty, from the 1930s to the 1960s. It was not so. The State's subvention, or a per capita bias, was adequate to feed, clothe, house, heat and give health care to the inmates. It was also sufficient for educational and craft skills to be taught. | |
