  1. (continued from previous page)
    coffins which are ranged within a wire railing to the left as one passes from the street into the Black Abbey Church, claim the attention of the visitor. There coffins were found in the neighbourhood of the Abbey from time to time when excavations were in progress.

  2. The Capuchin Church
    The date of the Capuchin's first foundation in Kilkenny is believed to be about sixteen forty three, and the site would appear to have been in St. Michael's Lane, adjoining the Priory of St. John. We do not know the exact date at which the Order came to the present Friary Street.
