Transcriber's Note, continued:

[Top]

Except when index entries did not match the body of the text, irregularities in capitalization and hyphenation have not been corrected. Alternate spellings (e.g. Ogilvy vs. Ogilvie), possible errors in quoted passages (e.g. remembraance), and mathematical errors have not been changed or corrected.

Minor punctuation errors (e.g. missing or extra quotation marks, extra commas) have been corrected without note.
