Paul Mary Pakenham: Life - "After Night - The Dawn The Life of Paul Mary Pakenham Passionist" by Stephen M. Hanford, C.P. Published at the Passionist Retreat 5700 N. Harlem Avenue, Chicago, Illinois August 31, 1974.

Paul Mary Pakenham: Life - a photocopy of an article, in the Irish language, on Paul Mary which appeared in the December,1921 issue of "An tImire", the Irish language version of the Jesuit publication, "The Messenger of the Sacred Heart". The title of the article is "An tAthair Pol Maire". It is a brief but fanciful account of Paul Mary's life, more fictional than factual. (See 2/2/7/21) for a translation and observations.) This item was handed in by Herman Nolan, who also supplied the translation,

Paul Mary Pakenham: Rector of Mount Argus - A rosary given by J.J.Colman, Snr., The Forge, 1 Camden Place, Dublin City to the Provincial, Mount Argus, Harold's Cross. Mr. Colman stated that the rosary was "bought for a trifling sum from a man of the name of Pidgeon a handyman about the house. It belonged to the late Paul of the Cross, who died at the house of your Order". The writer remembers this occurance and asks the Provincial or a representative to come and pick up the rosary. (The reference to Paul of the Cross is evidently a mistake for Paul Mary). The above details were recorded by Declan O'Sullivan on the original registration card with an added note as follows: "Thom's Directory, 1962-63 lists a Colman at No.2 -a farrier".

N.B. THE ROSARY IS LOCATED IN THE MUSEUM,

Paul Mary Pakenham, Life: photocopy of an Italian life of Paul Mary, titled "Conversione E Vita Del Capitano Carlos Reginaldo Pakenham ( author unknown). This is the Italian life referred to in correspondence from Winchester College as being "in the realms of fantasy" because it mentions the Prince of Saxe-Coburg and the Count March as having been fellow pupils of Paul Mary there. They never attended the college. (See item located at 2/2/1/5 )

Paul Mary Pakenham: Death - letter from his sister, Kate. Sorry to hear of his illness. She set off at once on receipt of Fr. Vincent's kind note. Asks that he write to her at her own house, 36 N. Gt. Georges St., when he is ready to see her. [N.B. This request seems to confirm the statement in Laurence Carr's Recollections, where he mentions that Paul Mary was visited by his sister, whom he apparantly did not recognise (see p 6 of 2/2/4/7 or p 4 of the typescript 2/2.4/12) While there are four pages of paper only 2 are written on.

Paul Mary Pakenham: Rector of Mount Argus - letter from Mr. B.J. Duffy, 36 Brighton Square, Rathgar, Dublin to Edmund Burke. He had found (in an old prayerbook with the owner's name and date mark 05.03.1854) a letter by Paul Mary, which he forwards. The letter was in fact the one to Osmond Maguire requesting the chest with the Mass-kit be sent on and announcing the first Mass at Mount Argus for 15.08.1856, which is now in the Museum (see 99/1/1/4 of 14-08-1856 ).

Paul Mary Pakenham - The Passionist: letter from Patrick Fagan conveying answers from Laurence Carr to further queries from Joseph Smith. Paul Mary was not of a hard disposition - not a martinet: disposed of all his goods before entering - came "as a pauper": fervent during celebration of Mass and charitable to the people. On verso p.3 there are short notes in Joseph's handwriting re Paul Mary's mortifications, his drill-walking of novices and his talent for sketching.
