Steve,

Sorry to interupt your bath but I wonder if you would like to see the Percy papers relative to Lord Lovel 75A. I would think that as an English teacher, you would find them interesting. They are attachments however so they must be sent by email. Also I would ask you to keep in mind that Horace Walpole's parody did not reach publication until 1904. Percy's letter from Walpole was acquired by the British Museum in 1884.

Jim, my maternal grandfather, Albert Wyllie was a proud laddie from hell. We had bagpipes at his funeral. I never mourned as well for anyone as when I heard those pipes.
