I'm going shopping.

I'm a librarian, and am holding a microfiche copy of the hymnal right now. I'm here for an hour more before we close, so let me know what we need out of it.

Thunderclap8 has actually gotten the original hymnal on microfiche. (!!!)
He and Persona are chatting now about possible keywords, etc.

As to how I found marthajanecanary (aka Calamity Jane) - in "Every other halfwit finds gold here (31 July 1876)", Hickock refers to "Calam". A quick Google search expands Calam to Calamity Jane, and that leads to her full name.
