Letters from William and Thomas Molyneux to Locke, 1692-1698
Forty letters, mounted in a large folio guardbook, 15 × 11.25 inches, bound in green morocco (uniformly with the volume of letters to Collins). Also formerly in the Alfred Morrison library, the volume was sold to Pforzheimer in 1919. Printed in Some familiar letters (1708)
The letters are numbered twice in an early hand. One series, in red ink, is not in chronological order; the letters are numbered 1 to 42 (omitting 6, 8, 19, 28-30 and repeating 3, 11, 27 and 34). The second series, which apparently included the letters from Locke, is numbered in chronological order, except that the letters from Thomas Molyneux are placed at the end; this sequence is that used in Some familiar letters.
