Notes
The four volumes of the reprint of the Dial plus the two supplementary volumes of Cooke's Historical and Biographical Introduction, numbered I and II, were issued by the Rowfant Club and published in Canton, Pennsylvania, 1901-1902 (reprinted, 1961). References here are entirely to the Rowfant Club reprint; the numbers for volumes and pages given in parentheses refer to the four volumes of the Dial, or the two volumes of Cooke's commentary, as the context shows. For his "Titles and Contributors" see II.196-211.
My textual references to the Harvard copy designate that of Emerson, deposited in 1944. I am indebted to Miss Jakeman for kindnesses in this and other research tasks, to Kenneth W. Cameron, R. H. Orth, and Merton M. Sealts, Jr. for helpful suggestions, and to the New York State University Research Foundation for travel grants.
