Introduction
This is the earlier of the two surviving manuscripts and, as WMR's accompanying note indicates, one of the few manuscripts that were originallypart of the manuscript inhumed in his wife's grave by DGR. DGR crossed it through, presumably, after he had copied this text. The copy he made from this document is at the Lilly Library.
