Summary
Letters to Fleay discuss the order of Shakespeare's plays and many textual matters; there are references to Dr. Appleton, P.A. Daniel, N. Delius, J.W. Hales, Richard Simpson, W.W. Skeat, James Spedding, Tennyson, W.A. Wright and other literary figures. In letters to Browning, Furnivall urges him to publish his wife's poetry in a cheap edition and to write on certain contemporary themes. Also, Fleay's drafts of two letters from himself to Abbott and Fleay's copy of one from Furnivall to Abbott, 1874, (155-157); Fleay's notes on some of the letters to him from Furnivall (115); a letter from W.C. H[azlitt] to Furnivall, July 29, 1869 (133); and a copy of a letter from Horace G. Bowen to Furnivall, March 7, 1890, about the Browning family (158). There are two copies of a printed notice from Furnivall as spokesman for the New Shakespeare Society and one for the Browning Society
