I wonder what his sister thought of it? She could compose, and her quartet at least is still played. So there must have been music in the family home when they were young.
Certainly W on the W looks literate. As Francis points out, it's not a scribble. But it needs massive editing to make sense of it - and Askew's rewrite makes more sense than Dave's repunctuation, though at least the latter works in a way now. Also, why did a Folkestone man write some half dozen 'Northumbrian' tunes? There must be a connection to explain this.
