2 Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
3 Version published 1913
4 by the C. & G. Merriam Co.
5 Springfield, Mass.
6 Under the direction of
7 Noah Porter, D. D., LL. D.
8
9 comprising pages vii to xvi of that volume.

11NOTE: in the original printed volume, these authors were listed
12in three colums per page, each column also containing three subcolumns
13headed, respectively:
14 Quoted in dict. as
15 Names in full
16 Dates
17
18 For convenience in computerized processing, the three subcolumns
19corresponding to one entry were reorganized into paragraphs of three
20lines, separated from other entries by two carriage returns.
21The first line in each entry corresponds to "Quoted in dict. as";
22the last line of each entry corresponds to "Dates" (But where the date
23column was blank in the original, "ND" (NO date) appears in this list;
24the ND was not in the original dictionary); the second line corresponds
25to "Names in full"; but in some cases where two names are given in the
26entry, there are two lines corresponding to the "Names in full", and
27the date then appears on the fourth line of the entry. Where two
28names are given in the "Names in full", sometimes two sets of
29dates were given in the third column, one set for each author.
30In this list, the birth and death dates are always on the last
31line of each entry, and where two sets of dates are given, they
32correspond to the birth and death dates of the two authors,
33separated by a comma, and in the same order as the authors.
34 Where a single question mark appears after a date, this mark was
35present in the original dictionary and indicates uncertaintly about that
36date. WHere two question marks appear after a date, those question
37marks did not appear in the original dictionary, and this indicates
38that the date (usually the last digit) is undecipherable in the
39printed version, and the best guess is given.
