Minutes of Comhlucht Chuilm Cille from 5th May 1957 to 1967, with accounts of two meetings in 1949/50 at the start.
It was originally an Irish-language society, but at the meeting of 4 October 1964, the observation was made that 'the present situation was that there was little Irish at the meetings'.
