Summary
Asking for a copy of the Transactions in which his paper was published; asking when Knight will complete his new Edition and the Biography; adding, in a postscript, that he is publishing an essay on Wordsworth in an American periodical,The Catholic World, in hopes of "helping on the circulation of his works in America. I should like to know whether the circulation of them was benefitted in England by Mr. Arnold's vol. of Selections. Somebody told me that it had rather acted as a substitute for the full Edition."
