Paul Finkleman's "Thomas Jefferson and Antislavery: The Myth Goes On" in the
Virginia Magazine of History and Biography mentions how researchers at the
Jefferson papers told him about this.  VMHB, vol. 102, #2, (April 1994) p.

Subject: "the wolf by the ear"


Fellow VA-HIST Subscribers,

    I recall that some years ago there was excitement among Jefferson
scholars over the discovery that Jefferson had written of having "the wolf
by the ear," rather than "the wolf by the ears."  Does anyone recall where
this discovery appeared in print?  If so, please let me know.
    Many anticipatory thanks,
    Constantine Gutzman
