The HTML version refers to the PDF file at the bottom
(in the fine print). If you load the PDF file and
search for "111" you will see one of the advantages
of the HTML version.

Roger - thanks for converting to HTML and posting. Spreading this work
is a Good Thing!

Yes, looks like the OCR of the text by Acrobat isn't perfect, at least
for this text. Ugh! But, my goal was to get the work into electronic
format, make a pass at OCR'ing and making searchable, and seeing that
Google et al picked up the documents when spidering the Museum's web
site. Having you pick up the ball and run with it is exactly what
should be happening. Any contributions welcome and appreciated.

Cheers,

Lee Courtney
