A file of copy letters (one original letter written by an assistant/secretary and initialled by Charles Gavan Duffy) from Charles Gavan Duffy to Martin MacDermott.

  • Includes a letter agreeing that the books mentioned by MacDermott would suit the series. Remarks that stories will be needed and advises where to look for them. A note on the letter indicates that MacDermott proposed to use Duffy's name for the series. Remarks 'The name you propose for the series bangs Bannagher! There is not a living man whom it would not turn into ridicule and contempt to employ his name in such a manner; that sort of distinction is reserved for the dead (15 December 1892, 4pp).
  • Includes a letter discussing a book - 100 Best Irish Poems. Considers the amount of pages each poem will require and the poets that should be included. Remarks 'I don't know what your opinion of Mr. Yates (sic) may be: mine is that his verses are the perfection of commonplace. Miss Tynan has made a collection of Irish love poems in which she selects from Mr. Yeats the amours of a kitchen maid. He is however a very self-confident critic; and has recently disparaged Davis and MacCarthy and declared that the Spirit of the Nation contained nothing of any value except Ingram's song.' (17 September 1895, 4pp).
  • Includes a letter praising MacDermott's Ballads and Songs. Expresses his joy at reading some of the entries but remarks 'At the same time I would be glad if there were two less of Davis and three less of Ferguson to be replaced by a specimen of Katherine Tynan, Ellen O'Leary, Dora Sigerson...' (6 March 1896, 3pp).
  • Includes a letter encouraging MacDermott to write a memoir of McGee (13 December 1896, 5pp).
  • Includes a letter mentioning three books that he would have liked to write but never got around to. Remarks that he would '...willingly transfer to you (MacDermott) and to scarcely any other person living.' (2 July 1897, 3pp).
  • Includes pages of verse (n.d., 5pp).
