Scope and content
Letters to Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap. from James Coleman FRSAI, 2 Rosehill Terrace, Queenstown, County Cork, concerning information on the predecessor to the Old Capuchin chapel on Blackamoor Lane, Cork. Coleman also expresses his satisfaction to find ‘a member of the Capuchin Order really interested in its history … [as] a large number of the Order now in Cork and Rochestown show nothing in the way of literary production any more than the secular priests who to my mind were never more illiterate than they are now’. With manuscript and typescript copies of the Coleman’s letters compiled by Fr. Angelus and a newspaper clipping of Coleman’s letter to the 'Cork Examiner' (19 Apr. 1924), referring to the chapel on Blackamoor Lane which was in use from 1771-1850.
