TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE
Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in the original book; otherwise they were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; unbalanced quotation marks were remedied when the change was obvious, but several remain unbalanced.
Some hyphens in words have been silently removed, some added, when a predominant preference was found in the original book.
Except for those changes noted below, all misspellings in the text, and inconsistent or archaic usage, have been retained.
[Pg 84]: “Monsy” replaced by “Momsy”.
[Pg 112]: Duplicate “the” removed from “with the the radio tent”.
[Pg 113]: “organeade” replaced with “orangeade”.
