No, this is the fifth edition in 1898. It says so on the title page and on page v it describes each of the editions. (But still quite fun to read) I'd love to see the contents of the first edition in 1879.

A mapping of the year to edition can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baird%2...e_Fraternities

Looks like the ones that google has up are
Fifth- 1898 http://books.google.com/books?id=8f4BAAAAYAAJ
Seventh - 1912 http://books.google.com/books?id=_f4SAAAAIAAJ
Ninth - 1920 http://books.google.com/books?id=2iErAAAAYAAJ
