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, inclorporating 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)
[1914-1915?]
AM &TM "The Saddes Story" [The Good Soldier]
 Box 21 Folder 2
376 leaves
An apparently complete manuscript of what was to become the novl "The Good Soldier", both typewritten and in various handwritings and divided into three sections IParts I-II, Part III, and Part IV) by pieces of green cord. Thomas C. Mosher ascribes the identities of the various transcribers as follows: "Most of Part I (manuscript pages 2-44 and 47-82) was written by Bridit Patmore; much of Part II (pages 141-196, 106-218, and 225-253) appears to have been written by the American Imagist poet H. D. (Hilda Doolittle); the last two chapters, less the first two typed pages (pages 342-376) look to be in the hand of H.D.'s husband, the English Imagist poet Richard Aldington.... The holograph portions of the manuscript surely represent first drafts; the typed portions may not be." Harvey Ci(91a)
