Transcriber's Notes:

Obvious punctuation errors repaired. Varied hyphenation retained as printed.

The frontispiece originally had a stick of the owner on it. That was deleted, hence the empty space on the left.

Page 11, "on" changed to "an" (or an Oneida)

Page 183, "sideway" changed to "sideways" (jump sideways just at)

Page 202, "seemd" changed to "seemed" (seemed in a fair way)
