From the August 3, 1971 acquisition record: "This set of Encyclopedia was given to my paternal Grandparents on their wedding day in 1876, in London, England. They were given to my father (L.W. Taverner) upon the day of his father in 1897 and he brought them to Canada when he emigrated here in 1904. I can recall they many times they were used as "reference" in my early childhood not only by our family, but by neighbours and friends in settling 'friendly' arguments."
