"I will tell you, " Mommsen said, "one thing; it is a small one, but it is characteristic. I told Mr. Bradshaw of a contraction I had seen in a manuscript of the British Museum, which, with all my experience of Pandect mss. I had never seen before. The British Museum peo- ple, who have also [ !] great knowledge, had not seen it either. When I told it to Mr. Bradshaw he said nothing, but presently brought me a ms. And showed me the very thing. " To return to our summary of the events of his life..., there are only a few more facts to be recorded after his appointment to the libra- rianship. First of all we must mention the clearing of the "Augean stable, " as he occa- sionally calls it, or as Prothero calls it, more diplomatically, the reducing to order of the "somewhat chaotic condition" in which he found the library ; the reorganization of the li- brary, the reforming of what is as he speaks of it "by courtesy called the arrangement of the books"; the systematizing of the cat- aloging, the introduction of printed title- - slips (years before the British Museum adop- ted this method), the introduction of a sys- tem of double-entry, with brief shelf-lists, the most careful watching over the bindery (the sheet arrangement of the Caxtons being spoiled in all the English libraries but that of Cambridge), etc.
