Scope and content
Cutting of an article from 'The Southern Cross', 16 Nov. 1938, lamenting the recent departure of Fr. Alban Cullen OFM Cap. for California. The article reads: ‘Fr. Alban arrived in Cape Town some nine years ago and took over what was then a struggling, obscure little mission, know as St. Raphael’s, Athlone, Cape Flats, and now, on his departure, we find a handsome and commodious church … [and] a dignified and roomy presbytery’.
