Yes the details are below: Yes, I do use Plaster of Paris mixed with joint compound for patching. I use it instead of hot mud. The way I do it is I have piece of plywood and I put a knife full of joint compound on the ply then hollow out the center (kinda like a doughnut ) Put about an of water in the center, then cover just the water with PoP. Let set until the POP turns grey.
Then cut it like a pie in quarters and pull one quarter away and mix it it up real well.
This gives you about 10 minutes working time. The advantage over hot mud is you can go back and pull and mix the rest without it all setting up.
How old is this house
I'd be more inclined to think it's paster over tile board. It was common to see this before drywall came out. It was faster then applying all that lath. I would not hesatate a min. to remove all of that old plaster.
Reasons being. There's going to be trapped moisture behind those walls now. Would give you the chance to up grade and or replace any wet insulation. Allow you to up grade wiring or add more outlets. If ballon constrution you would have access to install blocking at the top and bottom of the wall to add fire safety and stop air flow inside the walls.

Every so often I like to look at the sky. Not with grandeur, just glancing up and seeing what's present. Today it's a soft gray, reminiscent of a gentle comfort enfolding the sun. It's not a gloomy gray, more of an introspective gray. A pondering gray. This hue makes the surrounding green leaves seem more vibrant, as if they're showcasing themselves against the neutral backdrop. They sway gently when the breeze dances by. It's a delightful sight to enjoy for a brief moment.
I spent a while listening to the house today. Every home has its own melody, if you pause to notice it. There was a gentle hum from somewhere, perhaps a device in another room quietly attending to tasks. Occasionally a soft click. The rhythm of my own breath, a peculiar sound to observe. Often overlooked, but in the tranquility, it's noticeable. A steady beat, reminiscent of a gentle drum maintaining tempo.
Recalling the cool grass beneath my soles. A sensation from long ago, from a different season. The blades are soft and slightly moist, bending underfoot. It feels as though the earth is greeting you in its own quiet dialect. A comforting sensation, a straightforward one. It urges you to sit and gaze at the clouds, to find forms in them. One resembled a sleepy pup, another an awkward vessel. They transform swiftly, requiring keen observation before they morph entirely into something new.
There's something pleasant about a warm cup in hand. Unpretentious, merely warm. The warmth seeps into your digits, imbuing them with serenity. If you hold it to the light, you can observe tiny fragments dance within. It's mere water, yet it feels like a humble ally on a slow day. It's present, it's warm, and that's sufficient.
Sometimes the multitude of unseen stories astounds me. Each individual you encounter harbors an internal universe, full of thoughts, emotions, and memories unknown to you. They're all navigating life with these concealed worlds, sharing brief smiles or none at all. It's a profound thought, encompassing both vastness and intimacy, making the world simultaneously expansive and confining.
Primarily, I cherish the quiet intervals. The gap between loud moments. The sigh signaling day's end. The rustle of a turning page. The way sunlight spills onto the floor in an elongated golden stripe as the day wanes. These aren't demanding moments. They simply exist. And that's reassuring. That sufficiency is truly significant. It's fulfilling to simply be, occasionally.
