Transcriber’s Note
Full page illustrations are interpolated in mid-paragraph. These have been moved to the closest sensible paragraph break. Most, but not all, were not included in the pagination, and do not appear here with page numbers.
Errors, when reasonably attributable to the printer, have been corrected. The corrections appear as words underlined with a light gray. The original text will be shown when the mouse is over the word. Please see the transcriber’s note at the end of this text for details.
