		Robert Benson, his nephew, was present, saw the paper deposited by Hamilton in a volume of Pliny, and afterwards examined it himself.
		Benson said that he saw Hamilton and saw the list which was in Hamilton's handwriting; that his uncle made a copy of it, which still exists, and that his uncle then deposited the original in the New York Public Library.
		To suppose that it did not exist, is to assume that Egbert Benson and his nephew were either liars or forgers, or both, and the mere statement that such an assumption is necessary, is sufficient to destroy at once any theory that the Benson list never existed in Hamilton's handwriting.
