Those were the wrong URLs.  The current ones are:

Jan 1974 C reference manual:
    https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/cman74.pdf
May 1975 C reference manual (6th Edition Unix):
    https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/cman.ps
    https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/cman.pdf
Kernighan's tutorial:
    https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/ctut.ps
    https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/ctut.pdf

All these links are from the late Dennis Ritchie's home page, currently
