The Texican

by Dane Coolidge

Transcriber's Note:

• Minor typographical errors have been corrected without note.
• Word combinations that appeared with and without hyphens were changed to the predominant form if it could be determined, or to the hyphenated form if it could not.
• Mid-paragraph illustrations have been moved between paragraphs and some illustrations have been moved closer to the text that references them. The paginations in the list of Illustrations were adjusted accordingly.
• Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant form was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed.
• Corrections in the spelling of names were made when those could be verified. Otherwise the variations were left as they were.
• Other corrections:
  • Page 51: slahsh changed to slash.
  • Page 71: ailes changed to bailes (open house day and night, fistas and bailes).
  • Page 284: plead changed to pled (the petty criminals pled guilty).
• Error uncorrected: Page 233: stlong ("make me hip stlong.")
• Variation unchanged: Joe Garcia and José Garcia.
