Abstract
This pamphlet measures almost 6 x 4½ and has 48 pages. BF is on its front cover and FG on the back. Inside there are nine fables, two reflections, and one bit of biography. The illustrations are classic. The illustrators include Tenniel, Weir, Herbert Deland Williams, Bewick, and Crane. All of the illustrations are colored. The fables include FG, LM, DS, The Cats and the Monkey (with two illustrations), CP, FS, One Good Trick (the fox and the cat, without illustration), BF and GGE. The first reflection, after LM, is Doing Something for Others. The second, Just Like--What? offers good short applications and asks which fable each is like. The pamphlet has seen significant wear. Its staples are gone, and all of its pages are loose. Such ephemera as this I am especially happy to see preserved in this collection.
