A Publisher and His Friends

CHAPTER XXI
15/34

All the letters of Swift, except one or two, in this collection are printed (though not always accurately) in Scott's edition of his works.
Yet I think it would be proper to reprint them from the originals, because they elucidate much of Lady Suffolk's history, and her correspondence could not be said to be complete without them.

Let me know your wishes on this point.
5th.

My materials are numerous, though perhaps the pieces of great merit are not many.

I must therefore beg of you to set up, in the form and type you wish to adopt, the sheet which I send you, and you must say about how many pages you wish your volume, or volumes, to be.

I will then select as much of the most interesting as will fill the space which you may desire to occupy.
Yours truly, J.W.
