DODGSON, Charles Lutwidge (1832-1898). Autograph letter signed to 'Margaret', Christ Church, 9 November 1877, written in purple ink, 2½ pages, 12mo . 'It really is a great thing to get a book finished "while I have it so clear in my head", if I may venture to quote a modern poem'. Dodgson comments on the life of a writer ('I'm not hurting myself with work at present. It's nothing to what a lawyer does'), and offers to test out the 'Dictionary of Terms of Art'. Written in the year Dodgson published his Memoria Technica , 'a significant improvement on Dr Richard Grey's system (1730) for memorizing dates and events, with which Dodgson must have struggled as a schoolboy' (ODNB).
