"The Numismatic Directory for 1884", published by R. W. Mercer of Cincinnati, OH, contains the following errata sheet: "Letter E's on page 33 was left out on account of the confusion of the great flood, which reached 71 feet, 3/4 inch, on February 14th at 1 p.m. 1884, at Cincinnati, O. Also the cause of delay in publication of the Directory to this day, March 4th."

"What drives more fear into the heart of a bibliophile: fire or flood?"
