Responding to McIlvaine's inquiry about manuscripts; noting that the manuscript of Tess of the d'Urbervilles went to the British Library; mentioning a "librarian friend" (Sydney Carlyle Cockerell) who dispersed Hardy's manuscripts to public libraries; saying that he would like to oblige Pierpont Morgan and wondering if Morgan would be interested in the manuscript of "The Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid"--"the only prose of any length that is available now"; telling him that the story came out "about 1883"; adding that he could probably come up with a verse manuscript.
