Dear McKerrow,
I am reading Nashe again.
Some of these ideas probably occurred to me before—& were communicated to you—I must apologize if so.
GCMS.

This brief letter and the accompanying notes (MCKW A2/11b) were probably written not long before 20 October 1912, when Moore Smith referred to their contents in a postcard (MCKW A2/15), clearly expecting them to be easily identified. But as the statement with which the letter begins appears to indicate that Moore Smith had begun reading Nashe again after a break, it presumably precedes his letter of 28 September (MCKW A2/12), which also contains notes on that author.
