Reference and citation correction requested edit

All the citations and the reference to an unnamed article by James A. Woodburn in the Indiana Magazine of History used in this Wiki article are incorrect. There is no Indiana Magazine of History article in the June 1931 issue for the pages cited. Volume 36 does not cover the year 1931 (it covers 1940). Online searches for any IMH article related to Dresser and articles written by Woodburn did not locate anything that would include the page numbers referenced in this Wiki article. Does anyone know what the correct article and the page numbers should be? Rosalina523 (talk) 22:48, 29 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
