Summary
The cellars of academic institutions can be fascinating places. The cellar of Pusey House is no exception. Fifteen years ago it contained a large amount of unsorted material, some of which dated to the earliest days of the house. There were trunks, boxes of various vintages and, in one corner, a battered old suitcase. Opening it revealed thousands of small blue pieces of paper in the hands of Dr Henry Parry Liddon and his North Oxford amanuenses. Clearly here was the manuscript of Liddon's four-volume Life of Edward Bouverie Pusey, for the most part still sitting inside the grubby envelopes in which it passed back and forth, chapter by chapter, between J. O. Johnston's house at 9 Keble Road and Horace Hart, the Printer to the University. As with the manuscripts of Pusey's sermons in a nearby chest, it seemed a relatively straightforward task to put these pieces of paper in order using the four blue-bound volumes of Liddon's Life. An incentive to do this came from the fact that Liddon had provided detailed references for the letters from which he quoted, references which are often missing from the printed volumes. The daunting prospect of cross-referencing the many letters quoted on the printed page with the well-used and well-loved Liddon Bound Volumes seemed to have been removed at a stroke.
