Sorry, Lawrence
I dont have it, although our library at the UofA might.
It'd be awhile before I could check.
And there were so many different editors, that I cant give you a singe
name to seek out.
I certainly know that Bob C was over here a number of times, usually
around Toronto, where he would have known Richard, as well as the
others in both The Four Horsemen & Owen Sound.
You may have to ask Richard....

to the road that hies to office
away from home.
