‘Return showing the names of persons subscribing towards the repairs of the above-named Church and Convent’ (Cork: Flynn & Company, printers, 66 George’s Street, Cork). A printed appeal on the inside front cover refers to the need for funds to execute the necessary buildings and repairs as ‘with the approach of winter, the Community find themselves literally "without a roof over their heads"’. The account book is incomplete and relates only to the Coburg Street districts. Entries are listed under names, residences and amount of weekly subscriptions. The remainder of the volume contains a history of the vicissitudes of the Irish Capuchins in the late nineteenth century. Includes short biographical notes on Fr. Louis O’Riordan OSFC (Vice-Provincial and later Commissary General), Fr. Simeon Gaudillot OSFC (a Capuchin friar from Lyons, France, who was Commissary General of the Cork and Rochestown houses) and Fr. Seraphin Van Damme OSFC (first Provincial Minister of the reconstituted Irish Capuchin Province in 1885).
