Although the association of the Capuchin friars with the Walkin Street (now Friary Street) area of Kilkenny dates to the late seventeenth century, the documents in this section relate primarily to the present-day Church of St. Francis, built by Fr. Peter Joseph Mulligan OSFC (1793-1853) in 1848. The section also contains documents relating to the subsequent extensions to the Friary, most notably in 1897 when a large three-storey building between Walkin Street and Pennyfeather Lane was constructed to provide, among other things, accommodation for novices. The relatively large number of documents relating to the Walkin Street properties has necessitated the creation of a further three sub-sub-series relating to a particular plot of ground, purchase or sale.

This file contains correspondence between St. Joseph's and the Irish National League for the Blind relating to increases for the blind workers of the institution. The correspondence contains references to The Richard Institution for the blind which appears to have been, at the time, in a better financial position than St. Joseph's but nonetheless supports the proposals to increase the wages for the blind as it will benefit the basket weaving industry. It also contains a list of prices for basket products pre- and post-war, the reasoning behind the need for an increase in the wages and the amount of the increases and the sources from which they are coming.
