REPLIES TO MINOR QUERIES.
REPLIES BY GEORGE STEPHENS.
I beg to encloze ðe following scraps, purposely written on slips, ðat ðe one may be destroyed and not ðe oðer if you should þink fit so to do, and for eaze ov printing.
Pleaze to respect my orþography—a beginning to a better system—if you can and will. Ðe types required will only be ðe Ð, ð, and Þ, þ, ov our noble Anglo-Saxon moðer-tongue, letterz in common use almost down to ðe time ov Shakspeare!
If you will not be charmed, ov course you are at liberty to change it.
I have a large work in ðe press (translationz from ðe A.-Saxon) printed entirely in ðis orþography.
GEORGE STEPHENS.
