Ledger and account book for the Capuchin community at St. Mary of the Angels, Church Street. The ledger provides a daily record of income received and expenses incurred by the community. Notes are made of income derived from mass stipends, street collections, sodalities, Third Order payments and temperance publications. Reference is also made to monies received from donations, alms, bequests, and cheques. Expenses include travel tickets, lay staff wages, groceries, building repairs and other sundries. An entry from November 1908 refers to the payment of £30 to John Keogh for the completion of work on the Calvary at St. Mary of the Angels. The entries are periodically signed by the Friary Guardian and by the Provincial Minister at visitations.
