  • Long enough and new enough. No obvious copyvios, but I don't have access to the books. Also, can't confirm the hook is cited in the book(s). Image is from 1917 and is fine at least from a US copyright perspective. Doesn't the presence of "when" make "at the time" unnecessary? Edwardx (talk) 18:57, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
  • Thanks. The hook has been tweaked and "at the time" is now removed. --PFHLai (talk) 20:05, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
  • On the Google Books page, use the "search within this book" search box. The result is this link to page 594; the verification is near the bottom of the page. Slambo (Speak) 20:06, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
  • Thanks. Agreed, the book confirms the hook. In the hook itself, I have replaced "also became" with "was", in the interests of brevity. 18:26, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
