After the fact, in a smaller format, the proceedings were printed, including a list of attendees. At least four of Noah Webster’s descendants attended, including Emily E.F. Skeel, the tireless bibliographer of works by her great-grandfather. These two items, which belonged to one of those relatives, were acquired from materials descended through the Fowler line of the family.  Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Ex coll.

The editors benefited from the recently completed OED, the Century, and Funk & Wagnalls, just as the editors of those works consulted Merriam dictionaries. (The key was to compose entries that were different enough to seem original.) W2 remains one of the greatest dictionaries ever produced, still a favorite of the U.S. Supreme Court.  Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Ex coll.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1909 Description An account of the resource While serving as superintendent of St. Louis schools in 1878, William Torrey Harris reviewed a Merriam-Webster dictionary. By 1900, he had moved to Massachusetts to bring Webster into the 20th century. Harris innovated the “divided page,” which relegated uncommon and obsolete words to the foot of the page in compact type, making it possible to treat many more terms. The divided page was hailed as a stroke of genius. It would last through Webster’s Second but not through Webster’s Third.  Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Ex coll. Karolyne & Bryan A. Garner.

Frank Vizetelly, a talented lexicographer-colleague, wrote of Funk’s “indefatigable energy and practical scholarship.”  Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Ex coll.
