Autograph Letter Signed to Sylvia Lynd, poet and novelist.

ALS. 50 Upper Rathmines, Dublin; 10 Sept. 1904, in envelope addressed to 'Miss Sylvia Dryhurst / 11 Downshire Hill / Hampstead / London', 8pp., 12mo. Describing a visit to Donegal, beginning: 'We had a delightful time in the bogs of Termon. There was no town, or even village where we stayed, only a house which was half a shop, on the roadside, surrounded by dark blue purple mountain, and bogs covered with heather and bog myrtle. We got to know all the dwellers in the cottages about as Herbert Hughes was collecting folk songs, so we used to sit at the turf fire and hear the old people sing in the traditional style. I am sure you remember it, once heard it is never forgotten. I don't think the people ever quite understood where we came from. I am sure they still believe we came from England, as our home seemed so remote that it could not be anywhere within the sea that surrounds Ireland.' Discussion of AE "Picture Show".
