Notes: The first book to be printed at the Bodleian Library, this copy with the carte de visite of Mrs Daniel inserted into slits in the flyleaf - to which a manuscript message is added, thanking 'dear Elise' for her 'kind sympathy & affection'. At the foot of the same is written 'Oddington, Moreton in Marsh' - the Daniels' residence at the time of C.H.O.'s death, to which the inscription refers.
