It is important to note that this book, unlike most in this section of the website, is an American publication.
My copy is a black-and-white photocopy of one printed in 1917 bearing register No. 5646, issued originally to "Francis Paxton Old". A memo of promulgation just inside is dated September 29, 1913.
