Transcriber's Notes:

Due to the movement of illustrations to the end of the nearest paragraph or letter, some of the page numbers in this e-text do not exactly match their placement in the original work.

Corrected misprints are noted by hover information in the text. Otherwise, spelling and punctuation are presented as in the original text.

The index has been correctly alphabetized.

Additional spacing after some of the quotes is intentional to indicate both the end of a quotation and the beginning of a new paragraph as presented in the original text.
