This collection contains twenty-six leaves of Charles Dudley Warmer's manuscript of "The Study" for "The Editor's Study" in Harper's Bazaar. The manuscript contains the first two parts of Warner's essay published in Volume 95, October 1897 [pp. 798-800]. The text appears identical to the published version. It is likely that this was the manuscript submitted to Harper's – though there are minor authorial corrections throughout.
