Translator's note: several plain OCR misreadings on this roster page were
corrected against the image — "Seeretär"→"Secretär," "Wahleollegium"→
"Wahlcollegium," "Chronieiſt"→"Chroniciſt," "Direetorium"→"Directorium,"
"New Rork"→"New York" — none of these are printer's errors, just OCR
letter-shape confusions on a dense, letterspaced roster page. "33 Hamſtert
Str." is printed exactly so and is transcribed as printed (possibly an
error for "Hampstead," but not altered here). Note also the printing
agent is named "M. C. Barthel" here versus "Barthels" on p. 115 (PDF
p. 109) — likely the same man, spelling not normalized per house rule.
