			<p>Mr. and Mrs. Burdett Prince donated this item to the Washington State University

				converted to a manuscript collection in 2011. </p>
			<p>In 2026, Suzanne Hanson donated Prince family materials which included a second copy
				of this, with better quality images and some of the missing names added in (the copy
				received in 1976 is obviously a photocopy of the one received in 2026). After
				comparing the two, MASC retained the copy donated in 2026 here (with four pages
				missing from the 2026 donation moved over into it), and the other copy will be
				offered to the Whitman County Historical Society.</p>
