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.
