Scope and content
Song sheets, and the occasional tonic sol-fa, of songs sent to Nellie Walsh that she did not assign to a county and no county is immediately attributable. Many are about Ireland in general, or contain multiple counties which include Derry, Kildare, Antrim, Dublin. Two are religious poems/stories unrelated to Ireland, both sent by Captain P. Darcy, called "Shalom! Shalom!" and "Footprints in the Sand". Includes correspondence to Walsh refering to songs or poems to be included in her column, but unattached to the poems to which they refer.
