Bishop of Helena, 1904-1925

Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The personal arms are based on the arms of a Carroll family from Ireland as a symbol for his family name. On the original family arms the lions hold up a sword : as an appropriate difference, this has been changed to the processional cross of a bishop.
