The subseries comprises a large collection of loose pamphlets, magazines, periodicals, and booklets assembled by Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap., the editor of ‘The Capuchin Annual’. Much of the material is directly related to and largely produced during the Irish revolutionary period of the early twentieth century. The broad subjects include the Home Rule crisis (1912-14), World War I (1914-18), the War of Independence (1919-21), and the Civil War (1922-23).

Other content in the pamphlet collection is indicative of Moynihan’s eclectic interest in Irish church history, Franciscan history, antiquities, Irish literature and art, Gaelic culture, historiography, and the contemporary political and economic situation in Ireland during his lifetime.

A file containing loose clippings and Irish language notes relating to An tAthair Peadar Ó Laoghaire. The notes appear to be extracts on the life of St. Patrick taken from the clippings. Some of the notes are fragmentary and incomplete but refer to traditions associated with the saint. One extract reads ‘It is stupid to talk of St. Patrick overturning the altars of paganism in Ireland. The first “pagan temple” which he turned into a Christian church was a barn!’. The contents of the file were extracted from the bound volumes at CA CP/3/4/2/1.
