Transcripts and notes compiled by Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap. from mass registers of the Cork community. The notes mainly refer to personnel matters giving the names of community members, the dates of transfers, details of chapter meetings and the appointment of guardians. The title page reads: ‘This book contains notes made from an examination of the mass register of the Cork house. I mean the register signed by the Fathers of the masses discharged by the community. The examination extended over the books from 1889 to December 1914, a period of 25 years. It gives the names of the different Fathers in the community, superiors, dates of visitations and transfers from the community. I also examined house books from July 1883 to April 1885 to 1887 during which Fr. Englebert of Huissen OSFC was guardian. He used a special ledger of his own, as appears from an entry made by Fr. Matthew O’Connor OSFC who succeeded him in office’.
