Towneley's copy fetched £31. 10s; Lord Lansdowne's £21; Hanrott's £15; Gardner's, in 1854, £12; and the last one sold, which was disposed of at Sotheby's in 1863, brought £13. 138. 15094 Gaelic Songs. A collection of transcripts made by and for the late John O'Daly, of Songs and Ballads, in Gaelic, by Irish lyrists of the 16th and 17th centuries, with many letters from local celebrities of the south of Ireland, full of curious and recondite lore, contained within eight 4to. bookcovers, £5 1830-50 Most of these were written down from the oral dictation of peasants; and are accompanied by letters from the transcribers to O'Daly, generally characteristic of a keen philological and linguistic sense on the part of the correspondents, although not always men of fair English education. He seems to have published several of the songs in numbers, but shrewd criticism is passed upon him in these letters, and apt corrections suggested. 15095 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF IRELAND: published by Sir R.
