List of articles, records and relics relating to Fr. Theobald Mathew OSFC stored in a ‘wardrobe’ in Holy Trinity Friary. A note attached to the page indicates that some of these items were moved to Dublin (probably to the Provincial Archives in Dublin). The list covers pp 15a-17 in the Holy Trinity archival volume. Reference is made in the list to 'Fr. Dominic O'Connor's commission as a military chaplain for George V in 1916'. An addendum at the end of the list reads 'On the whole this collection isn't worth much.
