I'lirough the courtesy of Messrs. Hiram Card, 

 George B. Post, James MacAleer, George F. Reed 

 and Bradford Turpin, I have been able to locate 

 a ver\' fc-v of the oJd norn de plumes as follows: 



"Rusticus" was Mr. X. Elmore. 



"Lillibulero" was Mr. F. C. Phoebus. 



"Comedy" was Mr. .J. M. Pulley. 



"Reicnaf" was Mr. Howard Y. Ireland. 



"M. H. W." was Mr. Mifflin H. Wharton. 



''Bradley" was Mr. Bradford Turpin. 



It is to be regretted that more could not be found, 

 but there is a limit to the old timers alive at this 

 date, and their memorv' is not as clear as it was 

 forty \-ears ago, most of them regretfully admit.
