Presentation of an Address to Father Jarlath Hynes

1 p.; clipping

A clipping of an article detailing a valedictory presentation held on a Tuesday evening at the Capuchin Monastery and College in Rochestown, County Cork. The article documents a farewell address and a book testimonial presented to Fr. Jarlath Hynes OFM Cap. by a delegation from the Third Order of St. Francis, Kilkenny, to mark his transfer after a decade of service as their Director; it features an extensive list of local lay signatories led by John O’Connell (President, of Sion Villa) and P. O’Reilly (Treasurer). The article also details Father Jarlath’s response to the assembly, notably highlighting John O'Connell's lineage as the grandson of Daniel O'Connell (‘The Liberator’) and drawing historical parallels to the Liberator’s connection with Father Mathew, the Apostle of Temperance, before concluding with a mention of an evening Irish festival and magic lantern exhibition.
