For a book on taxonomic procedure I just finished. I need to find the page number of an introductory quote (I got it from a secondary source originally) -- we don't have the source here, and I haven't been able to borrow it from any regional library because it is a pre-1900 imprint. Could anyone on the list help me -- by finding the page number in your copy? I'd love to read the whole book, but there doesn't seem to be a reprint edition. Source Coues, E. 1874. Field Ornithology. Salem, Mass. Naturalists Agency. -- Quotation is "Don't trust your memory; it will trip you up; what is clear now will grow obscure; what is found will be lost. Write down everything while it is still fresh in your mind; write it out in full. Time so spent will be times saved in the end, when you offer your researches to the discriminating public" Judy Winston Judith E.
