This section includes deeds, leases and other legal documents relating to the acquisition of properties and plots of ground at 47-50 North King Street. In 1861, Fr. Lawrence Gallerani OSFC was appointed Capuchin Commissary General in Ireland. He immediately set about the task of building a new Capuchin Friary and Church in Dublin. When he could not procure any ground near the existing chapel on Church Street (except on a short lease of thirty years), he begun to look for another site, and found one at 47-50 North King Street. With the permission of the Most Rev. Paul Cullen (1803-1878), Archbishop of Dublin, he set about acquiring these sites. First, he got possession of nos. 49 and 50 and the two houses were fitted up as a temporary friary pending the erection of new buildings. On 23 July 1862, the Capuchin community left their residence at 18 Queen Street and took up residence in North King Street. Later that year, Fr. Gallerani obtained possession of two more houses (nos. 47-8), and on the advice of the Archbishop, began to build a friary before commencing work on a new church. Partly as a result of the opposition of the parish clergy of St. Michan’s, the Capuchins went no further on North King Street than building the friary which they inhabited for several years. The North King Street properties were sold by the Capuchins in 1883, when the present-day Friary was built on Church Street.

Daniel Patrick O’Reilly OSFC, Vicar of the said community, and Fr. James Edward Tommins OSFC, who jointly act as trustees for the Church Street community of friars. The deed notes that all the properties and interests of Patrick McDaniel and Richard Lynch as recited in the above-noted leases of 1 Jan. 1796 and 1 Sept. 1829 (See CA CS/2/2/4/2 and CA CS/2/2/4/5) are vested in Patrick Regan who agrees to assign the un-expired residue of the terms of these leases to the Capuchins. In consideration of £350. A portion of this purchase money (£300) is to be paid on the execution of the abstracting deed and the remaining £50 is to be paid within five years. The properties on North King Street are now known as nos. 49 and 50. The assignment also refers to a yard between Patrick Mathews’ holding on North Brunswick Street and the aforementioned Patrick Regan’s holding on North King Street ‘upon which he has erected a bakery and bakehouse ... being the entire premises comprised in an indenture of lease of the 13th day of June 1856’.

Later, O’Reilly consulted with Fr. Galleraini and was asked to compile a memorial ‘praying for the restoration of premises seized by the King of Sardinia … the same being private property and the buildings thereon having been built by advances by him and his friends’. The costs cover the period from Dec. 1861-Nov. 1865.
