      "counterLocator": "p.45, consulted 1900 printing",
      "assessment": "The broad catalogue wording needs qualification: Holyoake explicitly describes membership and voting for women at Rochdale and reports a different arrangement at Tillicoultry.",
      "limit": "A checked counter-statement is not independently verified institutional practice. This does not establish universal inclusion or equal influence.",
      "status": "Catalogue, Holyoake passage and selected 1877 institutional rule pages checked; early rules and actual participation outstanding",

        "locator": "Title page; rule 5a p.6; rule 12 p.9; rule 65 p.31",
        "finding": "The 1877 rule text provides a separate institutional check on formal admission and voting provisions, including a contextual clause applying masculine wording to females.",
        "limit": "This does not verify 1844 wording or actual female participation."
