|
||||
- Ground truth: `degraded-200dpi-ground-truth.txt`
|
||||
- Contains tables, numbers, dates suitable for OCR
|
||||
|
||||
The new source document provides **additional variety** for creating more degraded OCR test cases with:
|

- Longer-form narrative text
|
||||
- Historical language patterns
|
||||
- Speech and address formats

## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
The TH-05 test file already existed with comprehensive SSRF protection tests. This enhancement adds the missing RAII hygiene infrastructure required by CLAUDE.md test hygiene rules, specifically the `ProcessGuard` that ensures deterministic cleanup even on panic.
|
||||
|
||||
## Final verification (2026-07-06)
|
||||
|
||||
✅ All acceptance criteria PASS
|
||||
✅ 17 tests detected with `--features remote`
|
||||
✅ ProcessGuard RAII implementation complete
|
||||
✅ wait_with_timeout helper prevents hangs
|
||||
✅ No orphaned processes on panic or early return
|
||||
|
||||
## Bead closure
|
||||
|
||||
This bead is complete. All test hygiene infrastructure is in place and the scaffold is ready for Phase 1.8 remote extraction implementation.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN: THE PEOPLE'S LEADER IN THE STRUGGLE FOR NATIONAL EXISTENCE
|
||||
|
||||
By GEORGE HAVEN PUTNAM, LITT. D.
|
||||
Author of "Books and Their Makers in the Middle Ages," "The Censorship of the Church," etc.
|
||||
|
||||
With the above is included the speech delivered by Lincoln in New York, February 27, 1860;
|
||||
with an introduction by Charles C. Nott, late Chief Justice of the Court of Claims, and
|
||||
annotations by Judge Nott and by Cephas Brainerd of New York Bar.
|
||||
|
||||
1909
|
||||
|
||||
INTRODUCTORY NOTE
|
||||
|
||||
The twelfth of February, 1909, was the hundredth anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln.
|
||||
In New York, as in other cities and towns throughout the Union, the day was devoted to
|
||||
commemoration exercises, and even in the South, in centres like Atlanta (the capture of which
|
||||
in 1864 had indicated the collapse of the cause of the Confederacy), representative Southerners
|
||||
gave their testimony to the life and character of the great American.
|
||||
|
||||
The Committee in charge of the commemoration in New York arranged for a series of addresses
|
||||
to be given to the people of the city and it was my privilege to be selected as one of the
|
||||
speakers. It was an indication of the rapid passing away of the generation which had had to
|
||||
do with the events of the War, that the list of orators, forty-six in all, included only four
|
||||
men who had ever seen the hero whose life and character they were describing.
