Scope and content
Clipping of a pictorial supplement that documents the public turnout and natural environment of the annual Corpus Christi procession at the Rochestown Capuchin Friary. The text praises the celebration as the most impressive and splendid in the South of Ireland, regularly drawing a vast throng of worshippers away from the noise and turmoil of Cork city into the quiet woodlands and green hills of the friary retreat.
