Scope and content
Statement taken from the ‘old account book of the Cork community’ (see CA HT/3/1/1) relating to obligations to celebrate masses annually for James Roche (who left £50 for the purpose), Thomas Devereux (£100) and William Cogan. It is noted in the statement that these obligations have been in existence since 1855. An exemption is sought from the Holy See from any further obligation in respect of these donors.
