always be certain of the words in the captions. When a word isn’t clear, it’s replaced by
[** illegible]. There was a footnote without a reference to it on page 47. The reference was added to
the main paragraph on that page. The nature of the book referenced makes it likely that
the footnote was meant to provide authority for something in that paragraph. The footnotes have geen gathered together and placed in a section just before the
Index, starting on page [165] . Missing or obscured punctuation was silently corrected. Typographical errors were silently corrected. Inconsistent spelling and hyphenation were made consistent only when a predominant
form was found in this book.
