TM "The Saddest Story" [The Good Soldier], [n.d.]

 Item — Box: 21, Folder: 1

Scope and Contents

First part of an incomplete and uncorrected draft of what was later published as "The Good Soldier". According to Thomas C. Mosher, in his "Note on the Text," in The World's Classics edition of "The Good Soldier" (Oxford: Oxford UP, 1990), "The forty-two page typescript from which the magazine installment ["Blast"] was printed ... follows the holograph manuscript, incorporating some, but not all, of its revisions .... The "Blast" typescript thus antedates the first and predates the second complete manuscript. The "Blast" installment contains the novel's epigraph but omits the first sentence." Harvey Ci(9b)
