Summary
Discussing copyright and Collis's use of quotations; saying that his notes on Collis's manuscript were not written with publication in view and he "cannot authorise" their publication without "seeing them in proof that they can properly be published"; mentioning [George Gordon] Byron, [William] Wordsworth, [Henrik] Ibsen, and [William] Shakespeare.
