"Freedom and morality in Kant's Foundations" -- is the title of an unpublication by Grice in the Grice Archives

So now you know. It should be quoted as:

Grice, H. P. "Freedom and morality in Kant's Foundations". Most people researching this area agree that Kant's thoughts on freedom require a book on its own (Paton -- indeed such a book exists, by Allison). Grice is just concerned with an aspect of that topic. How Kant grounds morality on freedom for the autonomy version of the categorical imperative, and using Foundations as the only source. Quite an interesting task!

Grice used Abbott's translation.
