This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I hadn't thought of that- a self portrait once removed! That would 
explain why their descriptions look alike. But it makes Fechin and 
Casdoe's dad about 100 years old, when the dad looks the same age as 
~80-year-old Rudesind.
