Lloyd,
We also checked each iris in question in the R & I books. I was
judging with Ramona Howard, a very good friend and one of the finest
judges I have ever had the pleasure to judge with. Believe me, with
Ramona along we would never have been allowed to mark one as misnamed
without checking the R & I.
