Document:
(5) II.3 §7, ‘lights out in the village’ or ‘going to sleep’, originally intended as the end of Book II (see Letters, I, 8 November 1926) before being brought back into II.3 when, in August 1938, “MaMaLuJo” and a forgotten “Tristan and Isolde” were combined and rewritten to become the new II.4.
Note: When the MS of Book III was dispatched to Faber and Faber in January 1936, Joyce was able to get back to Book II, specifically to 1. He had most of the pertinent notesheets (see §1.0χ below) already to hand, and may even have had some preliminary draft work done, but he could now concentrate on it, when circumstances allowed. In June 1936, T.S. Eliot brought back the MSS of part I and part III for retyping by Léon and the work on II.3 was again interrupted (see Letters, NLFF, 7 May, CJJ, 5 June and 12 July, 1936). Most of August-September was spent on holiday, during which he also had to deal with the upcoming English publication of Ulysses (by John Lane of the Bodley Head: see Letters, NLPL, 4 September 1936). He returned to Paris on 13 September 1936. Yet he did not resume intensive work until the end of October 1936 (see Letters, NLHW, 5 November, 1936).
Fair copy/first draft (ink); early and late 1936 (possibly sent to Harriet Weaver on 5 November 1936: see Letters, NLHW, 5 November and 9 November, 1936).
Extradraft material used in composing §1 above. Most of it dates from around the time of the first two rounds of Madame Raphael's copying of his notebooks: it includes units from both the originals and, on different sheets, from the copy of those originals; mid 1930s.
First typescript; probably November 1936 (§2.0 was possibly drafted around the same time).
Retyped pages (mixed originals and carbons) of above draft; November 1936.
Second typescript (carbons). At one point continuous with §2.1. Note that the version of the close (written in on fols. 71r-v) postdates this draft level (see §1.3χ); November 1936, given to Harriet Shaw Weaver 5 December 1936.

Note: The revised typescript was sent to transition (now located in New York) in mid-December 1936 (see Letters, NLVP, 16 December, 1936). Only minor revisions were made on the transition proofs, assuming he even got these. Otherwise he was finished with the piece until near the end of 1937.
