Hi again Eisel,
I think "Tilde" should be "Tilbe". In S. Hanayama's Bibliography on
Buddhism, the following 3 books by H.H. Tilbe are listed:
1. Pali Grammar. 8vo, vii, 115 pp. 1899
2. Pali Buddhism. 12mo, vi, 55pp. 1900
3. Pali First Lessons. 8vo, x, 124pp. 1902
All were published by the American Baptist Mission Press in Rangoon
(Student's Pali Series). Nos. 1 & 3 are also listed on p.60 in
Geiger's Pali Literature and Language. I was also unaware of this
author until now.
