A plea for the Catholic Boys’ Brigade, Church Street

A flier titled 'A plea for the Catholic Boy’s Brigade by E.D. Daly'. The flier refers to the good works performed by Boys’ Brigade members in the Church Street area and seeks subscriptions to aid the organisation. It reads: ‘At present Church Street is not quite up to the mark of its energetic past. The sites of several of its rookeries of wickedness are now covered by Police Courts, and by buildings in which Capuchins carry on their work. …. How long this breeding ground of sin and crime existed in the past must be left to imagination. What is certain is that this worst spot of the worst city in Ireland was selected by the Capuchin Order as a place in which to live, beside the poor, and to help them against temptations to crime and intemperance. To anyone who can feel for the poor, and understand evils around them which they do not realise themselves, the way to Church Street from Sackville Street is still like a descent into Hades, if traversed about 8 p.m. at this time of year’. The file contains three copies of the document.

Account book for the construction of St. Mary of the Angels

An account book titled ‘Book of money received or expended in the building of the new church of St. Mary of the Angels’. The book comprises a record of monies collected and expenditure in financing of the construction of the church. Most of the expenditure is recorded as lodgements on account in the Hibernian Bank Ltd. Several annotations are made in the account book. On 7 June it was recorded: ‘N.B. Very Rev. Daniel Patrick O’Reilly and Fr. Joseph Martin Harkins raised in the National [Bank] the sum of £300 for building purposes. This loan was advanced at three months’ payment – in full. A condition I regard as very much disparaging to our credit. Indeed, if I were allowed to act I would close the account in the National’.

An Claidheamh Soluis

'An Claidheamh Soluis' (‘the sword of light’) was an Irish nationalist newspaper published by Conradh na Gaeilge (the Gaelic League). It was published as a weekly bi-lingual newspaper for the advancement of the Irish language. Eoin MacNeill was its first editor. He oversaw its publication from 1899 to 1901. In 1900 the League took control of the weekly bilingual paper 'Fáinne an Lae' (See CA/IR/1/8/1/1). This title was merged with 'An Claidheamh Soluis' and the newspapers appeared as 'An Claidheamh Soluis agus Fáinne an Lae'. The paper was later published under the names of 'Fáinne an Lae' (1918–9; 1922–30) and 'Misneach' (1919–22).
The file contains the following issues of the newspaper under its various titles:
