Transcriber’s Notes
Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in the original book; otherwise they were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; missing quotation marks at the beginnings of chapters were left unbalanced; a missing one within a paragraph was added.
The Table of Contents had no page numbers.
“Major Barbara” is listed in the Table of Contents, but thereafter is mentioned only once, in a sentence on page 99.
“Johnnisfeuer” may be a misspelling for “Johannisfeuer.”
Page 7: “a chilly, waspish pig” was printed that way, but it may be a misprint for “a chilly, waspish prig”.
Page 15: “Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde” was printed that way, but it is a misprint for “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”.
Pages 49 and 98: “The Admirable Bashville, or Constancy Rewarded” was printed that way, but is a misprint for “The Admirable Bashville, or Constancy Unrewarded”.
