Manuscript draft by Fr. Richard Henebry referring to the subjects of Irish music and literature. The headings include ‘Of the Keltic note’ and ‘Of Irish literature’. It reads ‘One should think that the first requisite for a neo-Keltist would be a thorough knowledge of the language and literature about to be manipulated. But strange to say it is never so.
