Members:

If you know me (and who does?), you know where I'd come down on the question
of my favorite copy of Following the Equator... 

FOLLOWING THE EQUATOR, A JOURNEY AROUND THE WORLD. Hartford: American
Publishing Co., 1897. BAL 3451.
Average copies of this book are readily available and can be had for under
$200.00.

By the way, it was one year ago this week that we all met in Elmira. Wasn't
that a wonderful time?

   It's a Jebediah Springfield copycat case.
