Arranged in two groups: I. Vocal scores (1 in 3 vols.). II. Promptbooks (3).

The vocal score is a manuscript piano-conductor score consisting of three leather-bound volumes, each with the title imprinted in gold on the front cover. Instrumental cues and other annotations are pencilled in. The last page bears the date "Boston Sept. 24th 1888." One promptbook is based on the libretto published by Alfred Mudge & Son (Boston, 1888), which is heavily annotated, including interleaved pages of handwritten stage directions. The other copies are typescript and consist of unbound separate pages in Tams folders.
