Stuk 11a - Letter from G. C. Moore Smith to R. B. McKerrow

(Sheffield?)—Sends further notes on Nashe.

Transcript

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.

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.
