Excerpt from A Thousand and One Notes on "a New English Dictionary" These notes on the great Dictionary which will always be associated with the names of Sir James Murray and Oxford University deal with (1) words not given, (2) senses not given, (3) earlier and later examples, (4) errors (very few) and points of more general interest. Perhaps a fifth part has appeared in the Times Literary Supplement. The ms. Here printed with a few additions was refused by three eminent publishers, and rejected without inspection by the English Association. Whether it adds something to our knowledge of the English language, the reader must judge. Many years ago I had tried direct approach to the Dictionary, without any apparent result. Again last autumn these notes, nearly completed, were submitted to the authorities, who offered (1) a pigeon-hole, (2) a possible epitomizer, (3) a clear disclaimer of any obligation ever to do anything with them. My objects in printing are first to submit my collections to criticism, and secondly to encourage others to the use of a noble work To praise the New English Dictionary would be superfluous. To study it and where possible to supplement it would be a new pleasure to many, as it has been to me and if my Notes have any such result, in Fuller's words my care and cost is forgotten and shall never come under computation.

Excerpt from Notes on English Etymology: Chiefly Reprinted From the Transactions of the Philological Society It will be understood that most of the etymological notes, as here reprinted, were more or less novel at the time of their appearance, or were taken from sources which were then new. In order to enable the curious to test the chronology in any given case, I have added the approximate date of publication at or near the end of each article, using 82, 85, &c., by way of abbreviation for 1882, 1885, &c. See pp. 1 - 2 for the exact list. Many of the notes here given have been adopted by later writers of dictionaries, and have appeared, for example, in the Century Dictionary (1889 - 91) and in the new edition of Webster I do not say that the editors of these works did not, in some cases at least, obtain similar results for themselves independently, for I have been informed that this sometimes happened I merely say that they had access to much of the material here given, and had my permission to make use of it. This at once explains a large number of the instances in which, for example, the new edition of Webster agrees with me as to results which nowhere appeared in the old edition of 1864. At p. 274, l. 3, I note, for example, that the old edition of Webster gives the wrong explanation of reply, whereas the edition of 1890 is correct. The date of my article (see p. 274, last line but one) is 1888. The same is true of the next article but one, that on some. Wherever I have myself been consciously indebted to others, I have endeavoured to say so. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
