Scope and content

List of missions and retreats given by the Capuchin friars of Church Street, Dublin, from Oct. 1904 to July 1913, and by friars of the entire Irish Province from Aug. 1913 to Dec. 1948. Gilt title to the front cover of the volume reads: ‘Record of Missions / Capuchin Friary / Dublin’. The information is given under the headings of place, diocese, name of conducting priest and remarks. Several typescript inserts referring to individual retreats or lists of missions in particular years are present in the volume. Occasional reference is made to the success of a mission such as the enrollment of individuals in the Third Order of St. Francis, or to the establishment of local temperance association.
