[PW] Re: British vs. American spelling of "receipt"

[Sylvia Milne]

According to the online Webster, the American spelling is  "receipt"
The English spelling is exactly the same,  in accordance with our old friend 
"i before e except after c"
You or your library will need a subscription to search the online Oxford 
English Dictionary, but you can search the compact version at
