If you follow the link to the page you can find a few more, although it takes a bit of searching

May be worth trying in the cold winter evenings.
Looking at some of the other contributions, they had some very well respected writers.

I hope that you'll be pleased to know that I have communicated your researched to Harvey's daughter, and that she will be showing Harvey's wife who, I'm happy to say, is still able to enjoy reading these documents.
