Transcriber’s Notes
- The prologue has numbered footnotes and the body text used footnotes marked with asterisks. Continued the numbered footnotes through the body text. Moved the footnotes to the end of the text.
- Changed three instances of “mediaeval” to “mediæval” which was used in four other instances.
- Changed three instances of "to-day" to "today", which was used more frequently in both plain and quoted texts.
- The author uses "St. Hubert’s Guild v. Quinn (64 Misc. 336)" both with and without the possessive on "Hubert." These inconsistencies left as in the original.
- [p. 43] Corrected "typefies" to "typifies".
- [p. 52] Removed duplicate “have” from “should never have have been allowed”.
- [p. 64] Added missing end quote after “city of Pseudopolis”.
- [p. 65] Section (d) in the original was originally labelled as section (e) and there was no section (d).
- [p. 78] In the New York state code, the paragraph starting with "3." ends with a comma. Corrected this to be consistent with other numbered paragraphs.
- [p. 78] Corrected "misdeameanor" to "misdemeanor".
- All other uncommon or contemporary spellings and punctuation left as in the original.
- The text under discussion is available from Project Gutenberg: [Jurgen: A Comedy of Justice] by James Branch Cabell.
