    1. [SRILANKA] Dutch Widows - part one
    2. Am much enjoying the increased correspondence on the list recently - & especially appreciate the contributions of Coreen & Larry. When I sent a block from the Colombo Journal 1833 recently, I had many replies. Many were very interested in the List of Widows I'd noted from Jan 16th, & some offered to defray the cost of copying, as it seems the list is unavailable elsewhere in its entirety. I will paste in below the first section, - entries 1 to 100. I've prepared it in rtf, where it looks beautiful, but I know that when I send it, it will all squash together. Can anyone send me a brief guide on how to paste in text as it was orginally prepared, - please?!

    3. Roz, thank you very much for the list - it came out fine, dont know either how to paste it in from regular Word - docs also come out lopsided, but this is excellent. When I copy it over into my Word it comes out fine. regards, Jennifer Israel Isreal On 30/05/07, rozmccutcheon@lineone.net <rozmccutcheon@lineone.net> wrote: > Am much enjoying the increased correspondence on the list recently - & > especially appreciate the contributions of Coreen & Larry.

    3. I think the easiest way to save a copy of your list is to select the names and paste into a Word document. You can then add your title and also add more names asyou send them. All numbers etc are saved.
