Anyone who may be concerned that he will miss out on a rare opportunity to see this book if he does not get into this auction might consider that it is held by at least 55 libraries, it is available on microfilm through the FHL, Higginson has it, Quinton will reproduce it on paper or CD, it is listed in the databases at Ancestry, and as moments ago I found 12 copies from $30 up available using only one used bookseller's site. I have seen it for under $20. Used books come into the market constantly--to suggest that when the ten copies of this one that I found earlier are gone there will be no more is absurd.

I know of no reason why an interested person should not bid on this book. But an interested person might like to be aware that there are abundant other opportunities to use or even purchase a copy.

It may be that notices of eBay auctions are a little too close to advertising to be posted on these boards. However Ayer researchers may be legitimately interested in the availability of this source. It is readily available.
