Priest and girlfriend in hiding with their child

A 73-YEAR-OLD Co Limerick-born curate and his partner were in hiding at the home of a relative in Dundalk, Co Louth, last night with their two- month-old love child.

The woman, aged 31, whom he calls his ‘girlfriend’ gave birth last November.

A close friend yesterday said the child was lucky to have Fr Maurice ‘Mossie’ Dillane as a father.
