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. There is no one of the school that enjoys the faculty of being able to read a book in any Keltic dialect whatsoever. They depend entirely on translation …’. A two-page musical score is included. Rough pen and ink illustrations (including some of a piper and a fiddle player) by Henebry are extant on the covers.
