[The following comments relate to Bryant, 1887, pp. 
451-454 but also affect this paper: It is stated that this 
paper was “Read August 1. 1887, ” but it was printed in 
a 4-page signature that is dated “July 23, 1887 ” and it is 
inserted between two other articles (one by Bryant, pp. 
450- 451, the other by Casey, pp. 455-482) one said to 
have been read on July 18, 1887 the other “July 18th, 
1887, ” the latter part of a an odd 5-page signature said 
to have been “Issued August 2, 1887. ” Both signatures 
are numbered 32. It is likely that the signature date print¬ 
ed on page 449 is in error and the correct printing date 
should be 2 August. Also, page 449 is the first page of 
Bulletin vol. 2, no. 8. Bull. vol. 2, no.7 ends with num¬ 
bered page 448, which is followed by an unnumbered 
“Errata” page and that by a blank page, which faces 
p. 449.])
