TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE

There are only two Footnotes in the book. They have been placed at the end of the book. The anchors are denoted by [1] and [2].

The cover image was created by the transcriber and is placed in the public domain.

This is volume 5 of 6. Similar to volume 4, this volume had a date (Year. Month) as a margin header on most pages. This information about the chronology of the narrative has been preserved as a Sidenote to the relevant paragraph on that page whenever the header date changed.

With a few exceptions noted at the end of the book, variant spellings of names have not been changed.

Some minor changes to the text are noted at the [end of the book.] These are indicated by a dashed blue underline.
