 - [*Rayons émis par les composés de l’uranium et du
    thorium*](https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Rayons_%C3%A9mis_par_les_compos%C3%A9s_de_l%E2%80%99uranium_et_du_thorium),

  It also includes the text of *Sketch of The Analytical Engine Invented by Charles Babbage With
  notes upon the Memoir by the Translator* by Luigi Menabrea and Ada Lovelace, which to the best of
  my knowledge should be public domain.

## Considerations for Using the Data

This really should not be used for anything but testing purposes
