Archivist's note
The inserted sheet does not list the poems in the collection; it is a chronological list (1916-1918) with different titles. Similar sheets are also inserted in other items but there they are related to the content. It is possible that the sheet has been moved and that it belongs elsewhere; or perhaps the main item -a collection- has been removed from the archive.
