1. Letter from R. B. McKerrow to W. Bang, February 25, 1903

I am greatly obliged for your letter of the 19th inst. and kind offer to include me among the collaborators in your series of `Materialen' [sic],—an offer which I accept with many thanks.

May I ask whether you have any suggestions to make as to texts that want

`doing'? you would, I suppose, naturally prefer those that are at present inaccessible in cheap or separate editions.

At the moment I am unable to propose anything, or rather, though I have in my mind two or three things that I should be glad to do and that seem to be wanted, they all want some looking into first. I will consider them and write again in a few daystions.

I am indeed rather busy just now being engaged on an edition of T. Nash[sic], which is a somewhat lengthy piece of work. I should therefore prefer if possible to arrange what piece or pieces you would like me to do soon, so that I can get them done when an opportunity offers. You seem to have plenty of material arranged for already, so would not, I suppose, wish to receive anything from me for some little time.
