In Oxford, James Murray interviews for a position as editor of what will become the Oxford English Dictionary. An autodidact, he left school at 14 and has no degree. Some Oxford University Press oversight committee members are contemptuous, but Freddie Furnivall describes their current “abject defeat”, saying that the extraordinary Murray may be what they need. When Max Müller haughtily asks for qualifications, Murray reels off the long list of ancient and modern languages in which he is proficient[3] and on demand provides a definition—and probable origins—of the word “clever”.

Over dinner with the committee, Murray hears opposing views. Müller insists that the book capture English at its current “purest peak” and setting strict rules for correct speech. Furnivall says that “all words are valid in the language. Ancient or new, obsolete or robust on, foreign born or homegrown. The book must inventory every word, every nuance, every twist of etymology and every possible illustrated citation from every English author. All of it or nothing at all.”

Murray has a solution to this daunting task: Enlist volunteers from everywhere English is spoken. He writes an appeal to English-speaking people around the world, asking them to send their contributions on slips of paper. Booksellers, librarians and newsagents distribute it. The slips pile up.

Meanwhile, Doctor Brayne receives Minor, who is tormented by flashbacks to the American Civil War. In a moment of lucidity, he saves a guard’s life by amputating his leg. He asks that most of his army pension be given to Eliza Merrett, his victim’s widow. Muncie, a guard, delivers it personally. She refuses. Dr. Brayne promises to protect him from his pursuer, gives him room to paint and allows him his library of rare books.
