Authentic Record of Cures at the Grave of Father Mathew

Bound volume containing a record of alleged cures at the grave to Fr. Theobald Mathew OSFC in St. Joseph’s Cemetery in Cork. The title page is signed by Fr. Martin Hyland OSFC, Guardian of Holy Trinity Friary, Cork, and is dated 10 Aug. 1922. Includes records of those visiting the grave from 9 June 1922 to 28 Aug. 1922, from 1 Feb. 1926 to 31 Dec. 1926, and from 12 Apr. 1929 to 28 Oct. 1929. The inventories of visits to the grave were compiled by Fr. Michael O’Shea OFM Cap. The introduction to the volume reads: ‘A view of Fr. Mathew’s grave gives us interesting matter for consideration. Twice weekly the caretaker clears away votive offerings left on the large stone covering his grave. These consist of beads, medals, crucifixes, curios, candles etc. All of which are usually buried near and around the grave. The number of crutches left by those cured had increased so much that the stem of the tee over the grave was completely covered with them’. The end pages of the volume include details of specific cases investigated by Fr. Michael from 1926 to 1932 including Annie Crowley, 3 Sober Lane, Cork, and Kathy Galway, 18 Pope’s Quay, Cork.
