  This appendix was added to Paul Harris' manuscript by the general
secretary of Rotary,
Philip
Lovejoy, after the death of the founder. It only appeared in the
early additions. The place you can find it today is in rare book stores, or
here at our project. These are the actual pages. For the text version and
