Report by Fr. Benignus Brennan OSFC on temperance missions given in various part of the country. The report includes the location of the mission, frequently terse information on the success (or otherwise) of the preaching including the numbers taking the pledge, and the general state of the temperance cause in the locality. The report includes references to missions held in Burtonport, Dungloe, Gweedore, Falcarragh, Dunfanaghy, Ballyshannon, Athleague, Westport, Achill and Ballygar. The report for Achill Island (where a mission was held from 9-12 Nov. 1906) reads as follows:
‘Ochone, ochone, the memory of it is enough to make one laugh or weep. The people are moral but absolutely indifferent, if not worse. About 330 took the pledge in this district and most of the people didn’t come near the church at all, so our exhortations to come to the retreat the old woman would answer – “musha may I would and may be wouldn’t”. To give a triduum in Achill and thereby do good would require the eloquence of St. Chrysostom, the strength of a Jerome and the support of the cat o’ nine tails, with which to drive the semi junipers to church. “Sure”, say they, “if our priests can’t do their work, let them pay others to do it out of their own pockets”. The parish priest was a splendid curser and in mortal terror of Fr. P[au]l’.

Letter from Fr. William OSFC, Franciscan Monastery, Crawley, Sussex, to Fr. Aloysius Travers OFM Cap. enclosing a copy of a blessing from Pope Pius X. It reads: ‘… the Friars Minor Capuchin of the Irish Province, charged by the Bishops of Ireland, to spread the apostolate of Temperance, have had the happy idea of aggregating to such a society even the children, and at the present moment there about two hundred thousand young members who promise to abstain throughout their lives from alcoholic beverages …’.

Minutes of a meeting of Irish Capuchin Missionary friars appointed to conduct the temperance crusade. The minutes refer to the correct ceremonials, forms of sermons and procedures in relation to the taking of the total abstinence pledge, and the formation of total abstinence sodalities at missions conducted by the friars.

Nicholas Murphy OSFC (1849-1923). A manuscript annotation on the first page reads: ‘Very Rev. Nicholas, Definitor OSFC, Capuchin Friary, Our Lady of the Angels, Church Street, Dublin (Ireland)’.
