Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 37, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 13 February 1911 — Manuscript of Pepys’ Diary. [ARTICLE]

Manuscript of Pepys’ Diary.

Pepys* library Is of great interest and value, but the six volumes containing the diary—called by its author his journal—are immeasurably the most interesting and the most valuable of the bookg preserved In It. These volumes are uniformly bound, but slightly unequal In size. Although the diary was written day by day, it la a marvel of neatness and looks aa if it was carefully written out •t «**e time. Even in those place* where Pepys describes himself as being careless In his writing there is little difference observable. — Wheatley. ?: '-rl: . . V.-- ' .
