Riley's discovery?
[edit]I removed a claim that professor Riley discovered this knot, as Ashley makes no such claim that I have found. Accordingly I also removed "Modern" from the origin field of infobox. Please re-add if a proper citation, Ashley or otherwise, can be found on this. Finding a copy of that pamphlet would be great, perhaps someone with access to Cornell's library system could help... --Dfred 12:57, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
- And nearly five years on... Footnote in Riley's pamphlet indicates he was reporting a knot that he'd been shown by a farmer at a county fair. Ref added to article. --Dfred (talk) 03:44, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
