Henry wrote ‘… beginning in Church Street the Capuchins set up a Clothing Guild for the poor and a Co-operative Work Guild. These have since spread to Cork and Kilkenny. More recently still Brother Kevin [Crowley] has set up a Day Centre in which a number of men who spend the night in the Morning Star and others can spend the day especially in Winter and can have served to them free at least two simple meals’.

(22 Nov. 1976).
• A copy letter to Dr. Margaret Sheridan suggests that Fr. Henry believed ceasing publication was ‘a mistake’ but it had not caused him ‘any personal grief’ (22 Dec. 1976).
