Scope and content
A large bound volume with a manuscript annotation on the spine which reads ‘Father Senan & Father Gerald’. The volume contains photographs, newspaper clippings, and ephemera relating to Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. and Fr. Gerald McCann OFM Cap., editors at the Irish Capuchin Publications Office. It includes images of the sculptural busts of the two friars by Laurence Campbell (1911-2001) and some photographs of both attending various social gatherings. A biographical sketch of Fr. Senan published in the 'Connacht Sentinel' (4 Feb. 1941) is also extant in the volume. It also includes correspondence and ephemera relating to Fr. Senan’s membership of the Mark Twain Society in the United States. The volume is not paginated, and a good portion of the pages are blank.
