newspaper published in San Francisco, shortly after the 
meeting. The newspaper columns were then rearranged 
and printed in a signature in Proceedings style; the sig¬ 
nature containing pp. 19 of this paper was printed some¬ 
time between 25 December 1854 and 1 January 1855 
The article was reprinted in 1873 (p. 18) in what has 
become known as the “Second edition, ” in which the 
original text was reset so that there is some discrepancy 
in pagination with the original publication (see com¬

Editon. PCAS, 2nd ed., 1:[unnumbered p. 1]).)
