TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES.

Sydney C. Grier was the pseudonym of Hilda Caroline Gregg.

This book is part of the author’s “Indian Historical Series.” The full series being: In Furthest Ind, Like Another Helen, and The Great Proconsul.

A letter in Chapter XII contains two words (Condicons and Consolacon) which have a tilde on the second c. As this character isn’t available in the current UTF-8 specification, c is substituted.

Alterations to the text:

Convert footnotes to endnotes.

Fix a few quotation mark pairings.

[Chapter II]

Change “Now tha his majesty was happily returned” to that.
