A file including correspondence and related papers re the publication of Fr. Richard Henebry’s ‘A Handbook of Irish Music’. This work was eventually published posthumously by Henebry’s colleagues in University College Cork in 1928. The book was based on a surviving Henebry manuscript which Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. had acquired. Portions of the text were published by Fr. Senan in ‘The Father Mathew Record’. The 1928 publication was edited by Tadhg Ó Donnchadha (‘Torna’), Henebry’s successor as Professor of Irish in UCC.

The file includes correspondence between Sir Bertram Windle and Carl Gilbert Hardebeck on the value of Henebry’s manuscript (1914-16). Windle later affirmed that he did not publish the book at this time (1916) due to the financial cost of such an undertaking (see Windle’s letter to Senan Moynihan OFM Cap. on 4 July 1924). The correspondence from 1924 onward includes letters between Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap., John English & Co., and several other printing and publishing companies, re the publication of Henebry’s manuscript.
