Thanks a million, Matt. I've made the corrections and mentioned you. (I had already made one of the corrections, but computers often show the viewer the cache instead of the recentest live version.) Usually I continue proofing for a while after I post something, but this time I did only a little bit.

Thanks Ben, for telling us about this and transcribing it!

I noticed a few typos.

Pg. 6: replace [X] with C.
"1. Any member of Section A not belonging to Section B may read a paper if he has paid his subscription, but otherwise not. And the same applies to every member of Section B not belonging to Section *[X]*, and to every member of Section C not belonging to Section A."

Pg. 9, replace all with call:
"Supposing such a machine to be constructed, ought we, or ought we not, to *all* it a reasoning-machine?"

Pg. 16, you put two a's before 'coffin':
"In like manner, we may picture to ourselves a number of men each in *a a* coffin to signify that he is mortal, one of the number being labelled Aquinaldo."

Pg. 24, fist should be first, and cases should be case:
"Even effects of color contrast, which deceive one at *fist* so absolutely, become much weakened, in time. In this *cases*, we..."

Pg. 26, change read to red, whem to when, add to.
"one deep *read* and the other appearing quite white *whem* seen by itself, the two being brought *to* the same degree of apparent luminosity. The observer looks..."

List,

Harvard has placed more Peirce manuscript images online. They keep changing the URL for the list of Peirce MS images online, and now one has to search at Harvard's "Oasis" instead of Harvard's "Hollis". I'll need to update the info at Arisbe. Anyway, for the current list of Harvard's online images of Peirce's manuscripts, go (or try to go) to

http://oasis.lib.harvard.edu/oasis/deliver/deepLinkDigital?_collection=oasis&inoid=null&histno=null&uniqueId=hou02614

One of the manuscripts newly available is MS 831. I've mentioned MS 831 a number of times, based on the Robin Catalog's description of it:

831. [Reasoning and Instinct]
A. MS., n.p., n.d., pp. 2–29, incomplete.
The fine gradations between subconscious or instinctive mind and conscious, controlled reason. Logical machines are not strictly reasoning machines because they lack the ability of self-criticism and the ability to correct defects which may crop up. Three kinds of reasoning: inductive, deductive, hypothetical. Quasi-inferences.

I've transcribed and posted MS 831 at http://www.iupui.edu/~arisbe/menu/library/bycsp/ms831/ms831.htm

Best, Ben
