The collection contains letters by Thomas Moore, portrait engravings of Moore, a manuscript extract from Moore's poem Lalla Rookh, and a published poem with Moore's annotations. The letters discuss his publications and an account of a conversation with Sir Francis Rawdon (Earl of Moira and Lord Hastings) about India. Three have been transcribed by a library staff member. A single poem, "Dog-Day Reflections," was published in a newspaper and has handwritten corrections made by Moore.
