Extract

Some time since, Mr. Paul Radin, a student of Ethnology in Columbia University, happened upon the discovery, in a second-hand book store in New York, of an early edition of the works of Lucan. On investigation, the two stout wooden boards with which the volume was bound were found to be lined with two manuscript sheets of an admirably written parchment codex (150 x 195 mm.) which Mr. Radin brought to the present writer for examination. It is by Mr. Radin's kindness that opportunity has been given to make the following communication.

1 It was the writer's intention to verify, in this article, the order and position of the contents of the fragment, by comparison with the corresponding passages in the Verard edition owned by Mr. Morgan; but in the absence of the latter from New York his library is absolutely closed, at the time when the article must be submitted for publication.
