Does anyone have a tex font (.pk preferably, but we can probably deal
with metafont if we have to or even troff) in a late 18th - early
20th century style?  This font should have, at a minimum

		* the long miniscule s that looks like an f with
		  part of the cross piece cut off

		* the st and ct ligatures (by which the s and c are
		  connected to the top of the t)

Please reply to davidra@helios.tn.cornell.edu.  A colleague wants to
use this in his dissertation (solid state physics theory), and a quick
response would be very useful to him.

Thank you,
