This article was copied from an early-twentieth century source of unknown provenance. It ends in mid-sentence. -- Jose Ramos 13:42, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)

What is the logic for having this article end in 1912... I mean besides the 1911 encyclopedia... Jabencarsey 04:01, 12 March 2007 (UTC) reply

Goodness, this really is a terrible article! What can be done? There isn't any modern work with such scope, and this is bad even for 1911... Macdonald-ross 19:50, 20 September 2007 (UTC) reply
