As Adam lives in Britain, which makes it incredibly easy to acquire copyright in his works, he grants, if needed, an irrevokable license to use this work however you see fit. He requests attribution where possible, and realises that "where possible" means that that request is not legally enforcable. Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:44, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

  1. ↑ See File:Letter by Abraham Bogardus March 22, 1887 - Original.jpg. The handwriting is a clear match, and the signature, while having the normal variation, has that very unique S, and so on. Also this source for another copy of the signature (with the alternative photo linked in other versions) states explicitly that it's a facsimile signature.
