Newspaper clippings relating to fund to defray debt

6 items; Newspaper clippings

The clippings contain lists of subscribers to a fund to pay off debts incurred in the building of St. Mary of the Angels. A clipping from the 'Freeman’s Journal', 27 Feb. 1897, provides details of a public meeting held in the Church, which discussed measures ‘for clearing off a debt of £8,000 still due for the completion of the new sacred edifice’. Among the attendees were William Field MP, Alderman Mulligan, and various members of the Church Street Capuchin community. The clippings were extracted from the subscription book relating to the said fund. (See CA CS/2/3/6).

The clippings are frayed. Careful manual handling required.
