An Unrecorded Yeats Item[Wyndham (Pamela) ed.] A Little Couple and A Baker's Dozen for Christmas 1928. Higham, Grange Press, Southwick, 20pp, heavy unbleached paper, uncut. Colour printed wrappers with label, stitched in faded green silk. Title page with borrowed Cuala vignette of a tree and stone wall in a bare landscape signed E.C.Y[eats]. Contents list at p. 20.The 'Little Couple' is a tipped-in photo of a young girl and boy, aged perhaps 10 and 8, signed by the photographer Adrian Harding opposite the first poem (Echo by Pamela Wyndham). The 'Baker's Dozen' of poems and extracts include The Stolen Child by W.B. Yeats, Golden Stockings by Oliver St. John Gogarty, and work by Vita Sackville-West, Coventry Patmore, Alfred Noyes, Laurence Binyon and others of the Edwardian beau-monde, mostly on the theme of childhood.Pamela Wyndham was a sister of George Wyndham, Chief Secretary for Ireland 1900-05; they were great-grandchildren of Lord Edward FitzGerald through his daughter Pamela FitzGerald. Pamela Wyndham married first Lord Glenconner (Tennant), and secondly the former Foreign Secretary Lord Grey of Falloden. The children in the frontispiece must be hers.The connection with the Yeats family is through George Wyndham, a patron of the arts, who knew W.B. Yeats, and who in 1904 gave the Abbey Theatre its patent allowing it to stage public performances, at the request of his cousin Wilfrid Scawen Blunt (a former lover of Lady Gregory). See Max Egremont, The Cousins (1977).A very rare item, evidently printed for family and friends. Not in Wade; not in BL, NLI or TCD. COPAC records one copy only, in the British National Trust Library.
Tender of the Façade of Holy Trinity Church, Cork[Pain (G.R.)] Draft submission of design for the façade of Holy Trinity Church, Cork, 3 pp, unsigned.Holy Trinity was the brainchild of temperance crusader Father Theobald Mathew, the architect being George Richard Pain. The foundation stone was laid in 1832, but work stalled for a variety of reasons (Pain's death, spiralling costs, the outbreak of the Famine); the church was opened in 1850, though the interior was not completed until 1866.The façade was left unfinished, and a competition was launched for a design as close as possible to Pain's to complete the work in time for the centenary of Fr Mathew's birth (1890). The committee was chaired by Cork nationalist Denny Lane, to whom this tender is addressed. The contract was awarded to Dominick J. Coakley and the work was carried out by John Sisk, and despite initial anxiety the church was reopened on time.This is one of the designs submitted, though as it is not signed and it has not been possible to identify the applicant. As a m/ss., w.a.f. (1)
