3. Spelling of many words and names in both volumes was inventive and variable from one paragraph to another. In proofing this file I began to believe the printer was short of "e's c's and o's" and began to substitute one for the others. I am sure I missed many of these.
4. The grammar used was often unacceptable today.
5. Nearly every page had long footnotes in extremely small print. Some of the footnotes referred to other footnotes. Many of the longer footnotes and footnotes to footnotes were placed at the bottom of succeeding pages, making the organization of these to the bottom of the page referring to them was challenging.
6. The extremely small and blurred print was often beyond the ability of the best Optical Character Recognition program available.

Unfurl'd her standard to the air,
She tore the azure robe of night,
And set the stars of glory there.
