[Corrections]
Unless otherwise noted, spelling, punctuation and capitalization are unchanged. Forms were regularized only where there was a very large disparity between the expected form and the apparent errors (for example, a thousand “A.B” against a dozen “A,B”), or a flagrant misprint such as “cnt” for “cut”.
Number forms such as “those. ij. last” or “line. A.B.” were silently regularized to “those .ij. last” and “line .A.B.” Missing sentence-final periods at the end of a printed line were silently supplied.
Unusual forms or combinations—especially phrase breaks where a comma is followed by a capital letter, or a period by a lower-case letter—are unchanged but noted with popups.
[Illustrations]
A number of illustrations contain errors such as unmarked or mislabeled points (“circle B.C.D” where only C and D are labeled). Labels added by the transcriber are shown in grey; moved or transposed labels are shown in red, with mouse-hover explanation.
