Mathew Memorial Church of the Holy Trinity was opened for divine worship’.

Plan of the Church Street Chapel bordered to the west by ground ‘in the possession of the mortgagors’ and the chapel house and to the east by the chapel yard fronting onto Church Street. The Chapel measures 164 feet by 58 feet. The plan was prepared by Terence O’Reilly & son, solicitors, 5 North Great George’s Street. The map is annotated: ‘The premises proposed to be mortgaged are bounded green’. The plan is also annotated on the reverse with a statement that the plan refers to the ‘Capuchin Loan’ and was sent to Messrs Blount on 22 June 1882.

The flier refers to the foundation by Fr. Benvenutus Guy OSFC of St. Joseph’s League which was approved by the Most Rev. William J. Walsh, Archbishop of Dublin, and provides details of its government and organisation. Article 6 notes that ‘members [are] to wear a badge to distinguish them from other boys. By the wearing of this badge they are expected to avoid the company of wicked boys, and to do all in their power to crush vice of every kind, especially evil speaking in those with whom they have to come in contact with’.

Photographic print of John Atkinson’s shop at 45 Church Street, Dublin. A manuscript annotation on the print reads ‘Church Street’. The print is also annotated indicating the numbers of houses on the street. Of particular interest are the advertisements for various newspapers on the hoardings outside the shop. They include (most prominently) the ‘Irish Worker’ founded by Jim Larkin in 1911 as a pro-labour alternative to the capitalist-owned press. It was eventually suppressed for its vigorous anti-war policy in 1915. Other prints advertised include ‘Irish Freedom’, which first appeared in 1910 and continued as a monthly publication until December 1914 when it too was suppressed by the British authorities. The ‘Catholic Bulletin’ was launched in January 1911 by Patrick Keohane. It originally acted as a review journal for Catholic literature but became increasingly strident in its advocacy of advanced nationalist politics.
