...following day Mairead Corrigan, a 32-year-old secretary and aunt of the three slain Maguire children, was looking out of her parents' front-porch window in Andersontown when she saw 200 protesting women march by. Corrigan joined Williams' ranks, and together they called for a women's peace rally the next Saturday at the spot where the children had been killed. Some 10,000 women, some wheeling prams, streamed into the rally from Protestant and Catholic districts long regarded as irreconcilably hostile. Another rally was called for the following Saturday, and this time the women arrived...

"I went there last night to meet some of the Protestant women who have been organizing from their end," Corrigan told TIME last week.

Edward Randolph Welles II, 67, the retired Bishop of West Missouri; and the Rt. Rev. Daniel Corrigan, 73, the retired bishop who had headed domestic missions, all apparently ignored a canon that forbids retired bishops to perform "episcopal acts" unless so requested by the local bishop. There was no such request. The fourth participant, the Rt. Rev. José Antonio Ramos, 37, of Costa Rica, was acting...
