published in 1908, before 1930, so the 95-year US copyright term has run. Derived by machine on 2026-09-09 from the year this record already states, corroborated by the year printed in the volume's own front matter, at leaf 2 of this volume's front matter. That transcript was read by the local OCR station; no person has checked the leaf image.
