[Transcriber's Notes]
Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in the three volumes of this novel, or to remedy simple typographical errors; otherwise they were not changed.
Dialect and other non-standard spellings have not been changed.
Spaces before the contraction "'ll" (for "will") have been retained.
Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines have been retained.
Page [82]: "Sailors don't no nothing" is printed as "know" in a different edition of this book.
Page [203]: The closing quotation mark after "of them? He didn't understand." perhaps should be after "of them?"
