The best place for reference to this is probably Tom Baldwin's 'Selected 
Writings' (of Moore), P. 207ff, which has a footnote giving (postulated) 
sources and further references. The version Baldwin includes is, he 
says, 'an untitled and incomplete manuscript from the Moore papers in 
the University Library, Cambridge. ...'
