FILE: authors.lst -- a Supplement to: + Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary + Version published 1913 + by the C. & G. Merriam Co. + Springfield, Mass. + Under the direction of + Noah Porter, D. D., LL. D. + + comprising pages vii to xvi of that volume. + +NOTE: in the original printed volume, these authors were listed +in three colums per page, each column also containing three subcolumns +headed, respectively: + Quoted in dict. as + Names in full + Dates + + For convenience in computerized processing, the three subcolumns +corresponding to one entry were reorganized into paragraphs of three +lines, separated from other entries by two carriage returns. +The first line in each entry corresponds to "Quoted in dict. as"; +the last line of each entry corresponds to "Dates" (But where the date +column was blank in the original, "ND" (NO date) appears in this list; +the ND was not in the original dictionary); the second line corresponds +to "Names in full"; but in some cases where two names are given in the +entry, there are two lines corresponding to the "Names in full", and +the date then appears on the fourth line of the entry. Where two +names are given in the "Names in full", sometimes two sets of +dates were given in the third column, one set for each author. +In this list, the birth and death dates are always on the last +line of each entry, and where two sets of dates are given, they +correspond to the birth and death dates of the two authors, +separated by a comma, and in the same order as the authors. + Where a single question mark appears after a date, this mark was +present in the original dictionary and indicates uncertaintly about that +date. WHere two question marks appear after a date, those question +marks did not appear in the original dictionary, and this indicates +that the date (usually the last digit) is undecipherable in the +printed version, and the best guess is given. + + !> + +<! p. vii ty=CW !> + + <H1>LIST of AUTHORS QUOTED</H1> +<h2>AS AUTHORITY FOR, OR IN ILLUSTRATION OF, THE FORMS AND USES OF WORDS GIVEN IN THIS DICTIONARY</H2> + +Abp.
