A file (with original box lacking a cover) containing eight slides. The file includes images of individuals, groups and landscapes.
36 (a) A glass stereo plate image of four women at the seaside cliffs known as Bridges of Ross, on the north side of the Loop Head peninsula in County Clare.
36 (b) A view of two Capuchin friars taking a break from an excursion on a jaunting car near Rochestown in County Cork in c.1908. The two friars are probably Fr. Jarlath Hynes OFM Cap. (1867-1918) and Fr. Casimir Butler OFM Cap. (1876-1958). The same image is extant at CA PH-1-23-S.
36 (c) A glass stereo plate of what appears to be unidentified deceased Capuchin friar in a coffin. This is probably an image of a deceased Fr. Sebastian O’Brien OFM Cap. (1867-1931).
36 (d) An interior view of Rochestown Friary Church in County Cork.
36 (f) A large group of both men and women (both sitting and standing) outside the main door to St. Mary of the Angels, Church Street, Dublin. Some of the men in the back row appear to be wearing temperance badges. They are probably part of a lay temperance association attached to the Church.
36 (g) A portrait of a man with beard (he does not appear to be a cleric) with a long waistcoat carrying a top hat. The plate has been scrubbed clean around edges and the upper right-hand portion of the plate is cracked with a fragment detached.
36 (h) A view of Lower Main Street in Graiguenamangh, County Kilkenny, in about 1905.

33 (i) Five dray horses standing harnessed to carts hauling large kegs at the Jameson Distillery, Bow Street, Dublin. A view of some of the working horses used at the Jameson Distillery, Bow Street, Dublin, in about 1910. The photograph was probably taken from atop of the old Capuchin Friary which fronted onto Bow Street.
33 (j) Two women (one sitting and holding a jug) on a forested hillside. The plate is missing a portion of the right-hand bottom corner.
33 (k) A large group of schoolchildren outside presumably a school building.

The series includes lantern slides and glass plate photographic images relating to the life and career of Fr. Theobald Mathew OSFC (1790-1856), a famed nineteenth century temperance campaigner and Capuchin friar. It is very probable that these lantern slides were used as illustrative aids by the Capuchins for public talks and auditorium lectures on Fr. Mathew’s campaign against intoxicating liquor. Temperance activity was revived in 1905 when the Irish Catholic hierarchy invited the Capuchins to preach a National Crusade. This revival generated widespread public enthusiasm and by 1912 the Capuchins had administered over a million pledges throughout the country. The lanterns slides were, in all probability, used in this campaign. The collection includes images of various places associated with Fr. Mathew’s life and notable events associated with his crusade against intoxicating liquor which began in Cork in 1838. Other images relate to later commemorations of Fr. Mathew and include photographs of the ‘Father Mathew Pavilion’ at the Cork International Exhibition of 1902 which displayed historical artefacts, devotional objects and personal paraphernalia associated with his campaign.
