Transcriber's Notes
Punctuation has been standardized. Minor spelling and typographic errors have been corrected silently, except as noted below.
"some one" and "someone" are used interchangeably throughout the book, and all occurrences have been left as printed.
On the second page (unnumbered), "12" added before "mo. Cloth. Illustrated."
"Imposter" left as is on page 6 (instead of being changed to "impostor") as it was sometimes spelled "imposter" in the time period.
Three instances of "stop cock" changed to "stop-cock" to be internally consistent and consistent with contemporary (1910's) usage.
Several instances of "employe" left as is, as it appears that way three times in the book and was written that way occasionally in the time period.
