File 10 - Letters from Gaffney Halligan & Co.

Letters to Fr. Benedict Cullen OFM Cap. from Gaffney Halligan & Co., solicitors, Artane Roundabout, Dublin 5, requesting information to enable the purchase of the freehold interest in 128 Church Street, and 1, 1A and 6 Nicholas Avenue, Dublin 7. The solicitors note that the Capuchin friars did not appear to ‘own the freehold of the above properties, as their title appears to be leasehold held under a lease from Samuel Worthington who in turn held his interest from the Merchant Tailors’ School’.
