Thomas Hartwell Horne. Biblical scholar, bibliographer, and polemic (DNB) Three pages, 8vo, remnants of laying down process, good condition. He is sending a copy of his "Manual of Parochial Psalmody" and its companion volume, "Selection of Tunes". He also is sending "a copy or two of my little publications. for your own library, which have been received with much favour by the members of our Church." In a lengthy postscript he acknowledges the "Selections" demiertis as his own but a Mr Henshaw, the organist of St Pancras Church "only arranged what the experience of many years had convinced me were favourite - good - & easily executed Church Tunes". He did so well that "one of the most eminent organ-builders has adapted his barrel church organ to Mr Henshaws arrangement."
