Waifs and Strays of Gaelic Melody
Comprising Forgotten Favorites, Worthy Variants, and

of Ireland

volume of nearly 400 pages; 1850 numbers classified but not harmonized. Beautifully engraved and bound All the favorite tunes (some in varied settings) are included, with many that are equally entitled to that name, but which were not locally known before. A full appreciation of all the treasures contained in the book would take a volume as large as itself Rev. Richard Henebry, Ph. D. No volume bearing on Irish melody published since the days of Thomas Moore has received such general and favorable recognition as the magnificient work "The Music of Ireland" by Col. Francis O'Neill, General Superintendent of of the Chicago Police Force Col. John F. Finerty. The Introduction to the book stamps him at once a keen student of musical history and a writer of more than ordinary accomplishments The Cork Sun, Ireland. To describe adequately this sumptuous quarto volume of 1,850 airs in clear music type suitable for violin, flute, or Union pipes would seem flattery, but let me at once state that nowhere is there procurable such a large collection of folk tunes many of which are here printed for the first time W. H. Grattan Flood in Ulster Journal of Archaeology. "O'Neill's Music of Ireland" No one has ever done anything like this for Irish music Dublin Weekly Freeman.

Ireland and Irish music will be forever in debt to you for preserving and perpetuating this great and precious inheritance of our race Rev. F. P. Donnelly, S. J.

wonderful to have added still another trophy to your splendid achievement especially as this last one seems so unique and interesting. It is surely a triumph of accomplishment Annie W. Patterson, Mus. Doe. This work contains finer music than any of your works. The Jackson tunes in it I never saw before and I am delighted with them Geo. A. H. Leech, San Francisco. To my mind the Preface to Waifs and Strays Is as good a piece of prose writing as I ever read level-headed teeming with information tersely set down, and displaying infinite research M. Flanagan, North Wales. Your new book Waifs and Strays has much interested me, and it may gratify you to know that your publications have been a great help to Sir Charles Stanford and myself who are engaged in our fourth production Alfred Perceval Graves, London.
