Antique Dealer is from Courtenay BC. He had acquired this book in that area. The rest of the set was missing. This single volume was spotted in a Burnaby Antique Show by Curator Colin Stevens at a table rented by Bluechicken Antiques of Courtenay. After determining that it was identical to the volume missing from our set, it was purchased. The set we have is HV975.70, and was acquired from Ivan Sayers. He had acquired his set in Alberta. His set was missing Volume 4. [CMS 1991 FEB 20]
