Letters from the Most Rev. William MacNeely, Bishop of Raphoe (1888-1963), granting diocesan faculties to the Capuchin friars of Ard Mhuire. The letter of 4 May 1931 reads:
'I hereby grant to the Fathers at Ard Mhuire the faculties of the diocese as our priests usually enjoy them. Apart from general or provincial reservations, there is no peculiar limitations with us, except in regard to makers of poteen or sellers of spirits (even licit) outside licensed premises'.
