Transcriber's Note
What appeared to be clear typographical errors were corrected; any other mistakes or inconsistencies were retained.
Hyphenation was inconsistent in some cases; the inconsistencies were retained (e.g.: “body-guard” and “bodyguard”, “battlefield” and “battle-field”).
The author chose to have some characters in the play speaking in “dialect”. The way this dialect is spelled is inconsistent and this inconsistency was retained.
The advertisements for other plays on the last pages of this book were formatted inconsistently. Attempts were made to make formatting more consistent, while retaining its peculiarities.
