Deleted the bizarre conversion of £500 to 190kg of sterling silver. It's an amount of money, not a weight of bullion.

Samuel Purchas
A previous reviser was unaware that the Pilgrimage (1613 and later editions) and the Pilgrimes (1625) are two distinct works. A google for original title page images will confirm.

→Repertoire: Added Britten's Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge, and made a link from the reference to Tippett's Concerto for Double String Orchestra (by the way, the Ives and Ruggles additions below were me too -- forgot to sign in).

William Baffin
Deleted year of birth from box since, as I made clear some time ago on the Discussion page, this date cannot be supported even as a "circa" designation. We don't even know the decade of Baffin's birth, let alone the year.

Mackenzie River
Provided some citations for Mackenzie reaching the river's mouth on 14 July, since some people seemed to doubt it and couldn't be bothered to look it up for themselves.

Alexander Mackenzie (explorer)
Provided some citations for Mackenzie reaching the Arctic Ocean on 14 July, since some officious person had deleted my reference to it in the "14 July" article because it wasn't referenced in this article.

Added Mackenzie's descent of his eponymous river, 1789. [I added this in October last year, but it seems to have been deleted by a rather clumsy editor's reversion related to some other change.]
