Transcriber’s Note
Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; occasional unpaired quotation marks retained.
Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained; occurrences of inconsistent hyphenation have not been changed.
Most commas at the ends of paragraphs and sentences have been changed to periods. Occasional missing periods and commas have been restored.
Page [92]: Transcriber added the colon in “Poor man:”, as the print at that point was incomplete.
Page [117]: “I except to see ninety” was printed that way; may be a typographical error for “expect”.
Page [193]: “asked many question, about” was printed in the singular.
Page [227]: “gloves from the settie” was printed that way; probably should be “settie”.
