Catalogues of objects and souvenirs held in the Father Mathew Museum (‘Hall Room No. 6’). A note appended to the list by Fr. Martin Hyland OSFC, Guardian of Holy Trinity Friary, Cork, is dated 27 Dec. 1920. A later note affirms that these items were apparently returned to the friary on 8 March 1921. The lists include many portraits and pictures, temperance medals and pledge cards, the original design and plans for Holy Trinity Church by E.W. Pugin and George Coppinger Ashlin, letters of Fr. Mathew, a model of the old friary chapel on Blackamoor Lane, a model of Holy Trinity Church, cups, teapots and plates commemorating temperance, missals, Fr. Mathew’s walking sticks, the visitors’ book to the Father Mathew Pavilion at the Cork Exhibition in 1902, Fr. Mathew’s piano and other ephemera. It appears that many of these objects were previously displayed at the Cork Exhibition in 1902.

Partial catalogues and lists of material held in the Irish Capuchin Archives relating to Fr. Theobald Mathew OSFC compiled by Fr. Nessan Shaw OFM Cap. and Fr. Paul Murphy OFM Cap. The listed material is mostly commemorative in nature and includes temperance association reports, newspaper cuttings covering the temperance movement in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, speeches, addresses and orations at events celebrating Fr. Mathew’s life, temperance publications and ephemera, and correspondence. Most of the material has been listed elsewhere in this catalogue.

This record is part of the list of all the missions preached by the Passionist Fathers in St. Patricks Province (Ireland and Scotland), from 1927 up until 1965. It is just an electronic list with no physical counterpart. It has been made available to aid research into the Passionists.
