Scope and content
Refers to a letter he wrote to Sidgwick about the connection of Protagoras with E[ ]. Reports that he re-read the articles in the Journal of Philology carefully, and observes that the [shares] of Protagoras and Socrates in the development of E[ ] seem to him as Sidgwick describes them. States that he is referring to the paper in one or two of his notes as 'the Meno'. Thinks that the date to be assigned to the Euthydemus should be not later than the Republic, 'perhaps even not later than the Meno.' Refers to Sidgwick's reference in the second paper in the Journal of Philology, V to a subsequent paper, which Thompson has never seen. Asks if it had ever been published.
