H. L. Mencken

[callary ed]

I, too, seek information from the first edition of Mencken. In the second
edition, in the section on names, Mencken lists 8 categories of geographic
names: personal names; transfers; Indian names; Dutch, Spanish, German and
Scandinavian names; Biblical and Mythological names; Descriptive names;
names from local flora, fauna and geography; and fanciful names.

Does this list also appear in the first edition?

Thanks.
