Summary:

"Notes and Queries, Vol. IV, Number 112, December 20, 1851" by Various is a periodical publication likely written in the mid-19th century. This work serves as a medium for communication among literary enthusiasts, artists, antiquarians, genealogists, and others interested in sharing notes, queries, and answers across a range of subjects related to literature and history. The content primarily revolves around discussions and inquiries regarding specific references, historical figures, and literary passages. The opening of the compilation lays the groundwork for a collaborative exploration of various scholarly topics. It begins with a transcript by Rev. Moses Margoliouth, who discusses the identification of Wady Mokatteb with Kibroth Hattavah, providing context from biblical times. Following this, a query by Henry H. Breen on a passage from Goldsmith's "The Deserted Village" suggests a critical emendation to Goldsmith's text. The "Notes and Queries" seeks contributions from its readers, offering a diverse collection of minor notes and queries, as well as responses, all aimed at fostering scholarly dialogue and knowledge-sharing among its audience.
