Synopsis

Excerpt from A Letter Book, Selected With an Introduction, on the History and Art of Letter-Writing

If, however, there was no need to rely on any of these books, they did nothing to hinder in the peculiar way in which I had feared some hindrance. For it is a nuisance to find that somebody else has done something in the precise way in which you have planned doing it. I have not yet encountered that nuisance here. Dr. Jessopp's general plan is most like mine - indeed some similarity was unavoidable but the two are not identical, and I had planned mine before I knew anything about his.
