Thanks for that -- I had searched in a different method and had not come up with this part song arrangement (actually, it was in the result set, I'd just overlooked it). It is Version 2, and based on the same edition as I cited with the giant URL in my previous reply to Cecil Rigby (it's the same arranger). > This could be a very useful website for any number of possibilities. It's a pretty amazing resource, and shows the value of digital collections for rare materials like these. Of course, I am wholly against 100% digitization, as so many librarians seem to think is a good idea (there is a definite circle among professional librarians who want to scan all the books and then destroy them!). -- David W.
