UQFL2 CATALOGUE OF HAYES SINGLE ITEM MANUSCRIPT COLLECTION Catalogue of the Hayes Manuscript Collection Page 2 Subject index Page 200 Name index: Correspondents Page 216 Name index - Appendix Page 246 PREFACE The chief interest of this catalogue for scholars lies, I think, in the literary material - manuscripts and correspondence of A.G. Stephens, Mary Gilmore, Paul Grano, John Howlett Ross, F.W.S. Cumbrae- Stewart and many others - but there is much else of value. Father Hayes’ wide interests included anthropology, geology, Australian history, particularly Queensland local histories, wildlife and conservation. There is evidence of all these. He was above all a good parish priest, as well as a scholar and bibliophile, and as he seldom threw anything away, so far as one can judge, there is much Catholic Church history hidden away in his papers. He kept numerous letters from parishioners, nuns and fellow priests which reflect changing social patterns in Queensland. No attempt has been made to evaluate the importance of manuscripts listed in this catalogue. Much apparently trivial correspondence has been included. The only concession has been to exclude the personal papers and family and parish correspondence of Leo Hayes and Michael Potter, restricting entries in the published catalogue to broad general ones. The arrangement of the catalogue is alphabetical. There are two indexes: a name index, which is predominantly a list of correspondents, though certain names appear because they are editors or illustrators, or otherwise qualify for added entry according to normal cataloguing conventions. The second is a subject index. This includes places, institutions, names of periodicals and personal names where the person is the subject of a letter. Thus a name may well appear in both indexes. There is no title index to this published catalogue, as it was held that the titles of original work by major authors were readily available in the body of the catalogue, and to list all the titles of verse submitted for anthologies, frequently rejected as unsuitable, would be a bulky and confusing procedure, resulting in long lists of similar or identical titles. All cross- references are given in the indexes, not in the body of the catalogue. This results in an index with some references which are apparently non-productive, since the preferred forms are in the main entries; but the catalogue itself is thereby easier to scan. 1 Catalogue of the Hayes Single Item Manuscript Collection 1.
