Frank P. Walsh (1864 - 1939) American lawyer, "Influenced by his early poverty, Walsh became a lifelong labor advocate and progressive democrat.

House, and also visited Ireland, where the members traveled widely and met with leaders of the revolutionary governmentAs chairman of the commission, Walsh gave advice to Eamon DeValera, the head of the Irish revolutionary government, during his trip to the United States in 1919.

It was he who first suggest to me the organization of the Protestant Friends of Irish Freedom, at a time when the cause was little understood by our non-catholic friends. Afterwards he became one of the founders of the organization, gave faithful service as an officer of the same, and with ready voice and open purse, fought the good fight" and humbly asking for Ford's endorsement of Black's candidacy; Black did become a NY State Supreme Court Justice.
