The citation as it was given

ITS OWN ROW BECAUSE A SHEET IS A ROW, even when two sheets are one letter - the same rule that gives every SG diagram verso its own id. `sources.file` holds exactly one path, so a second leaf listed inside the first row is a leaf nothing ever asks for. checks.py caught this one within the hour, as an orphan scan. | THE TRANSCRIPTION OF BOTH LEAVES IS ON SRC-446, unsplit, because the letter is one argument and cutting the transcription in half would make it unreadable to serve a filing rule.

Kept verbatim. This project contradicts published genealogies and corrects a family's own oral tradition, so every claim has to be checkable by someone who was not in the room.

Nothing in the model cites this source yet.
