Transcriber's Note

All unusual, archaic and inconsistent spellings and usage have been maintained as in the original text. Here are some notes:

The Greek word in the In Memoriam—πολύμητις—would be transliterated "polymêtis", and the Greek phrase which appears in The History of the Adventurer—οἱ πολλοὶ— would be transliterated "hoi polloi."

I added the entries for "In Memoriam" and "Acknowledgements" to the Table of Contents.
