Transcriber's Note

This book was transcribed from two scans of the original found at the Internet Archive. Words in italics in this etext were italicized in the original book. I have corrected obvious misspellings but I've left variant spellings alone. Inconsistent spellings of names and incorrect punctuation have been fixed.
