Readers can proceed similarly for the (0,2,0,1,6,2)-residue set associated with (113 l and

(113)23, and the (0, 2,0,3,4,2)-residue set associated with (113)14, (113)17, and (113)25.
Although considerable attention has been given to n3-configurationsfor the cases where
n = 7, 8,9,10 (see [1], [5], [7]), there appears to be no reference in the recent literature to work
done on the 113's about a century ago. Thus, our puzzle's focus on the case of n = 11 has the
added benefit of summarizingand updating some important earlierresults on the 113's.
