Interesting Manuscript Account of the Voyage of An Irish Yacht to Scandinavia, 1872 de Montmorencey: A manuscript folio volume of 51 written pages narrating the voyage of the cutter yacht Mystery to Norway, Sweden and Denmark in the summer of 1872. The yacht's officers are listed as H. de Montmorency Fleming, "Owner, Skipper, General Navigator"; J.C. Fleming, "Master"; and W. de Montmorency, "Chaplain". These were Harvey de Montmorency Fleming (aged thirty), his father John Congreve Fleming (aged sixty), both of Barracore House, Goresbridge, Co. Kilkenny, and his cousin the Rev. Waller de Montmorency, rector of Kilsheelan, Co. Tipperary (also aged thirty - he became Archdeacon of Ossory in 1911). The first and second mates, boatswain, AB (able seaman) and cook cum steward are also named. The narrative begins with the arrival of the Mystery at Cowes in the Isle of Wight on 29 June 1872, having come over from Dunmore East. It ends with her arrival at Inverness on 16 August following. During her seven-week voyage she visited Christiansand, Gothenburg (Göteborg), Elsinore (Helsingør), Copenhagen and Karlskrona. The narrative is lively and in addition to daily details of the voyage there are entertaining accounts of local customs, buildings, personalities and types of food. The volume is profusely illustrated with photographs, lively pencil sketches by Harvey Fleming, printed maps, rubbings of Scandinavian coinage, and small engravings.

Important Early Manuscript Poem by James Stephens With Critical Manuscript Comments by George Bernard Shaw Manuscript: A folio page containing a poem entitled "The Earth Song" signed by James Stephens. There are six verses, each of eight or nine lines. Written across both sides of the sheet are comments, by George Bernard Shaw, to whom Stephens had evidently sent the poem for his appraisal. Shaw's critique is fairly devastating: "Unless you have an intensity of feeling that transfigures everything for you and can express that feeling in lines that have beauty, dignity, fascination, you cannot write poetry". However, Shaw reassures Stephens that the prompt return of a short story he had sent to an editor does not mean it is no good, and he criticises the facetious tone of Stephens's letter to the editor: "Englishmen don't understand jokes in the wrong place - sometimes not even jokes in the right place." He urges Stephens to persist with his writing but warns him not to be financially dependent on its success. Shaw's remarks are signed from Maybury Knoll, Woking, and dated 29 December 1902. Much about Stephens's early life is obscure, and at this period he was employed in a series of poorly paid clerical jobs of short duration. His first known literary contributions were made to the United Irishman in 1905, so this early composition - with Shaw's reaction to it - is specially significant and unique. As a m/ss, w.a.f. (1)
