Just a guess: all the letters are the first letters of the solfege syllables, do re mi fa sol la ti, so perhaps that’s what the letters refer to at least.

This is called the "tonic sol–fa" system. Created by a guy named John Curwen, it's not exactly a singing system like solfège, but rather a notation system.
At the risk of publicizing myself, I asked (and subsequently answered) a question on this exact distinction at What exactly is the "tonic sol–fa" system, and how is it different from solfège?

This standard solfege notation in certain English songbook editions: the letters are abbreviations of the doremi syllables.
There are also symbols for the note length.
I have to assume:
: = next beat. - = tied quarter
d’ = do hihgher octave
t, = lower ti
