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; unpaired quotation marks were remedied when the change was obvious, and otherwise left unpaired.

[Page 1]: Transcriber removed redundant book title.

[Page 27]: The chapter title was printed as “A PURITIAN IN BOHEMIA,” but was changed here to “A PURITAN IN BOHEMIA,” as that matches the spelling in the Table of Contents and in other uses of the word elsewhere in the book.

[Page 173]: The chapter title was printed as “THE ABUSES OF ADVERSISY,” but was changed here to “THE ABUSES OF ADVERSITY,” as that matches the spelling in the Table of Contents and in other uses of the word elsewhere in the book.
