Department of Mines, Geological Survey, Ottawa. Sent to 'Hon H. Osborne [sic]', Rideau Hall, Ottawa.- The trip Onslow mentions could almost certainly be 'made in one season', but though it is easy to reach Fort Simpson in Spring, but from there Onslow would have to ascend the Laird river to its source, for which he would need 'reliable men' because of the high water. The Survey's geologists have descended the Laird, but he does not know of any who have gone the other way. It would not be difficult to go to Dawson via Fort Good Hope at the mouth of the Mackenzie, 'up Peel's River 30 miles and down the Porcupine to the Yukon'.

Adds that Mr McConnell, who has made the trip down the Laird, is willing to advise Onslow on 'all three routes to Dawson by way of the McKenzie'. Will introduce them if necessary.

Russie, Romodan, gouvt de Poltava,
le 14 juin 1904.

Monsieur et trés honoré confrère,

Je commence par Vous demander pardon pour le hardiesse que je prends en m’adressant à Vous sans avoir eu l’honneur de Vous être recommandé; je me fais une illusion d’espérer que le motif de ma lettre pourra me servir d’excuse auprés de Vous, et je tâche à vaincre mon indécision.

Le premier volume de Votre belle édition des oeuvres de Nashe me procure ce motif: il me suggère l’idée qu’il ne Vous sera pas indifférent à savoir que cet auteur ne reste pas privé d’interêt dans ce pays et que j’ai eu la bonne chance de présenter à nos lecteurs un article sur se signification littéraire, inserré dans la revue “La Pensée Russe” (Rousskaia Mysl, {1} 901, N 5) et faisant partie d’une série d’études intitulées “L’origine du roman moderne.” Le tirage à part de deux premières chapitres de cette série suivent ma lettre.

M. le Professeur Morfill a lu ces études et il pourra Vous en donner des renseignements; les “foot-notes” Vous en diront le reste.
En comptant sur Votre bienveillance je Vous prie bien, Monsieur, de me permettre à Vous souhaiter le meilleur succés de Votre excellente édition et de Vous présenter l’expression de mon profond respect

Translation

Dear Sir and most respected colleague,

I begin by asking your pardon for the liberty I take in addressing you without having had the honour of being recommended to you; but I flatter myself with the hope that my motive for writing will serve as an excuse, and have therefore tried to overcome my hesitation.

I derive my motive from the first volume of your fine edition of the Works of Nashe: it suggested to me the idea that you might be interested to know that this author does not remain without interest in this country, and that I have had the good fortune to present to our readers an article on his literary significance, inserted in the journal La Pensée Russe (Rousskaia Mysl, 901, No. 5) as part of a series of studies entitled ‘The Origin of the Modern Novel’. An offprint of the two first chapters of this series will follow my letter.

Professor Morfill has read these studies and he will be able to give you details of them; the footnotes will tell you the rest.

Relying on your kindness, I beg you, sir, to allow me to wish you every success in your excellent edition and to assure you of my deepest respect,

Wladimir Lesserich

8 Macpherson Avenue, Toronto, Canada.—Asks for a specimen of the Society’s book-plate, and sends two of his own design.

(The design at the head of the paper is similar to Add. MS a. 684/1/2. The Bibliographical Society did not have a Librarian; the letter was presumably passed to R. B. McKerrow as Secretary.)

83 Macpherson Avenue, Toronto, Canada
2nd November 1918

Mr Stanley Harrod presents his compliments to the Librarian of the Bibliographical Society and begs to request that he may be favoured with one of the society’s bookplates by C. W. Sherborn.

He wishes to explain that in taking this somewhat presumptuous step he is actuated solely by a desire to possess examples of the highest attainment in this field of art, that by their study he may improve his own work. To accomplish this end he must appeal to the courtesy and generosity of the owners of the plates.

He encloses two of his own designs in the hope that they may prove of some slight interest.

Two letters
