Series consists of materials relating to music education in Toronto, including at the Toronto Conservatory of Music and the Toronto College of Music.

This series contains a range of W.E. Gallie’s personal ephemera. Files include banquet invitations and programs, copies of high school examination forms, certificates, travel souvenirs, invitations to lectures, newspaper clippings and a large scrapbook. The scrapbook contains newspaper clippings, correspondence, manuscripts, dinner programs, and an invitation to Gallie’s wedding. Some of the files in this series, notably the newspaper clippings and scrapbook, may have been collected by Gallie’s wife and children.

Correspondence, course notes, programs, songbooks, mementos and photoprints relating to the activities of Herbert, Ritchie, Mattie, Harriet, and William Clark (especially the last two) while students at the University of Toronto.

These files consist of photocopies of handwritten letters, postcards, telegrams, cartes de visites and
handwritten and typed transcriptions of correspondence to Émile Zola written between January of 1895 and
March of 1896. Frequent correspondents include Ernest Vizetelly, Eugène Fasquelle, Fernand Xau, Alfred
Bruneau, Guiseppe Giacosa and various family members (including his cousin Carlo Zola and his niece Elina
“Lili” Laborde). Most of the contents of the letters are concerned with the publication and subsequent
translations of Zola’s Rome, including a number of Letters of Contemporaries discussing the translation of
Rome in the United States. This increase in both the popularity and intellectual presence of Zola in the U.S. is
evidenced in the number of American correspondents and the photocopies of newspaper and journal articles
attached that discuss Zola’s works. As with some of the other files in this series, on some letters, Zola has
written brief notes to himself about responding to the letters (as can be seen on a letter from Ernest Vizetelly,
dated May 25, 1895, in File #268).
