The Hibernian Society of Baltimore Seal
"The front figure represents the Genius of the Society, which stands ready to defend and relieve, with one hand stretched as if debarring that evil which may be impending. The other figure sitting in a mourning attitude represents the Genius of Hibernia in distress and the vessel on the distant sea represents emigration. Over the Genius of Hibernia is an eagle, holding an half developed scroll inscribed with these words, 'Enjoy this asylum, thy Sons have bled for it.'"
