Since  your  visit,  I  have 
spent  several  hours  carefully  checking  up 
the  bound  volumes  of  the  earlier  issues 
of  "The  Vindex"  now  kept  in  the  School 
safe,  with  the  result  that  I  have  good 
news  for  you.  I  find  that,  in  spite  of 
what  I  told  you  the  other  day,  we  have 
complete  files  of  "The  Vindex"  from  the 
first  issue  in  February,  1877,  through 
June,  1887.  0 no  of  these  bound  volumes 
is  inscribed  with  your  name  and  the  state¬ 
ment  that  it  was  presented  by  you  to  the 
School  on  9  November,  I897.  And  1  judge 
that  some  of  the  other  volumes  came  from 
you,  too.  There  is,  therefore,  no  reason 
after  all  to  think  that  any  of  your  gifts 
have  gone  astray.  I  am  delighted  to  find 
this  the  case. 
The  errors  in  the  typewritten  list  I 
showed  you  arose  from  the  incomplete  in¬ 
formation  on  the  covers  of  some  of  the 
books.  For  example,  one  book  is  inscribed 
flJLt-  * 
Dear  Mr.  Deane,
