Most transcriptions are in Todd’s own hand; some are typed, and some were transcribed by other individuals. Editor's notes are written in pen and pencil on the transcription. |
| Notes | The transcription is undated. The date range is based on the year Emily Dickinson died and the year the final volume of Dickinson's poems and letters that Mabel Loomis Todd edited was published. |
