You guys seem to have fixed the issue with the URL, but here's an alternate one if needed:
http://blackmoor.mystara.us/pdfs/D&D_Supplement2.pdf
Supplement II is unique in that it was the first D&D supplement to present anything close to setting information. Supplement II had the original version of the Temple of the Frog, including the backstory with St. Stephen.
Some other sections have also proven to be useful to raid for tidbits of possible Blackmoor lore.
Unfortunately, the editors over at TSR at the time failed to see the brilliant ideas in Arneson's works and thus removed some of the Arneson content that might otherwise have been found within this supplement. Likely, this is the information that instead was passed on to Judges Guild and published as the First Fantasy Campaign.
