Licensing

Public domain

The author died in 1927, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 95 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

Notes

  1. According to date on image, just above the rectangular stamp on left [in mirror writing]. The stamp says this was filed in 1899, so there's no particular reason to doubt. The writing is backwards, as it's bleeding in from the back.
