There were many printers errors and typos in this book. The obvious ones have been silently corrected. Others that might be cases of old spellings have been retained.

[Page 19]--I suspect "of" is missing in the phrase, "that he would have been unworthy (of) the name of a Christian" but I did not change it in the text.

[Page 120]--The paragraph that begins "After the 'Hero's' death" was originally included in the preceding blockquote, but it doesn't seem to be part of the quoted letter, so I moved it out into the surrounding text.
