Revision
Printed pp. 359-384, headed "Jerome. Lives of Illustrious Men", with Richardson named on the part title. Added to the archive by the founder's choice from the study-Bible source list, not through a Catechism citation. Transcribed from the CCEL ThML of NPNF2 III and collated word by word against the dated scan (Internet Archive cu31924031002110) before loading. Where a note is nothing but a scripture reference identifying the passage Jerome quotes, that reference is kept as a link at the note's position. 13 readings in which the CCEL text departs from the print are corrected to it, each read off the page image.
