TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE

Handwriting on [frontispiece] and images on pages [62], [260], [300], and [386] appears to be original to the images, and has been retained in captions.

Footnote anchors are denoted by [number], and the footnotes have been placed at the end of the chapter.

Original cover has the title “The Life and Friendships of Mary Russell Mitford”, which did not reflect the title on the titlepage. The new original cover art included with this eBook is granted to the public domain.

Some minor changes to the text are noted at [the end of the book], as well as an image of the original cover.
