Costs of Thomas J. Furlong, solicitor, 11 Eustace Street, Dublin, associated with ‘tenants’ costs of and incidental to obtaining a fee farm grant of premises on Church Street’. The fee farm was granted by Caroline Sophia Hunt to Fr. William (Paul) Neary OSFC and Fr. Nicholas Murphy OSFC. The costs cover routine solicitors’ expenses from 19 Aug. 1912-30 Nov. 1912. The total amount due was noted as £25 13s 4d. On 5 Nov. 1912, Fr. Angelus Healy OSFC informed Furlong that he ‘had no document to identify the numbers of the houses with the premises in the old lease’. Furlong had already walked around the whole property constituting the Friary and ‘found no trace of the old buildings’. He also inspected the architect’s ground plans but could obtain no positive proof as to buildings referred to in the fee farm grant.
