This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ...remarks, "the mastership was to the licence what the nuptial festivities are to the marriage blessing."
