Includes figures for expenditure in respect of salaries, postage, and payments made to John English & Co., printers. The first part of the journal includes a list of promoters (possibly for 'The Capuchin Annual') and two inserts of accounts from 1938 which are seemingly unconnected to the Publications Office.
Receipt and expenditure book of the Capuchin community of St. Mary of the Angels, Church Street.
