UNITED STATES COURT OF CLAIMS
The Publishers Of Webster's international
Dictionary allege that it lis, in fact, the popu-
lar Unabridged thoroughly re-edited in every
detail, and vastly enriched in every part, with
the purpose OF adapting it to meet the larger

tion."
We are Of the opinion that this allegation
most clearly and accurately describes the
work that has been accomplished and the
result that Las been reached. The Dictionary,
MS it now stands. has been thoroughly re-
edited in every detail, has been corrected in
every part, and is admirably adapted to meet
lie larger and seyerer requirements OF
generation which demands more Of popular
pathological knowledge than any generation
that the world has ever contained.
It is perhaps needless to add that we refer
