ISAIAH

Two pages, 12mo, good condition. I have just sent off by rail folios 1-24 of Isaiah, to middle of Chap. xiv, though I hardly expect you will be able to make much progress with that book at your next meeting. It is interesting work, but will not be huried. | I have also enclosed a copy of my 'Proleomena' (25 copies printed separately from the Hexapla) for your kind acceptance as the Fascicules (which will include it) may not be out for some weeks, though quite out of my hands.

3pp., 12mo. Bifolium. Fair, on lightly-aged paper. Slight damage to second leaf caused on opening of letter, with small piece of one corner under the red wax seal. Addressed on reverse of second leaf to 'Revd. Thomas Wilkinson / New Knapton Hall / /near/ North Walsham'. He writes that he will surprise Wilkinson 'by this flying note to tell you how strong the recollections of old times still remain in my memory'. If they could see each other, Wilkinson would see his 'external change'. Since they met Verity has 'been several times on my travels, the sport and play-thing of circumstances'.

Canadian-born American geographer (1878-1950), President of John Hopkins University, a member of the American delegation at the Dumbarton Oaks Conference, at which the United Nations was founded. Both letters docketed and bearing the Society's stamp. Both good though lightly creased and on slightly discoloured paper; letter one with a spike-hole (not affecting text) and letter two with rust stains from a paperclip.
