  • Content: Edward Grier and Richard Maurice Bucke date this manuscript to the 1850s ( Notebooks and Unpublished Prose Manuscripts , ed. Edward F. Grier [New York: New York University Press, 1984], 4:1588; Notes and Fragments , ed. Richard Maurice Bucke [London, Ontario: A. Talbot & Co., printers, 1899], 67–8). Because the fragmentary draft material on the back of the leaf (duk.00945) relates to an 1855 review, this manuscript was almost certainly written in or after 1855.
