Transcriber’s Note
Hyphens appearing in compound words on a line or page break are retained or removed based on the preponderance of instances of the word elsewhere in the text.
On occasion, tabular data which spanned pages repeated some headings. These repetitive lines are moot in this format, and have been removed.
On p. 231, the footnote number, now n222, was missing from the note, and has been restored.
There is a minor inconsistency in placing a space before the abbreviation ‘lbs.’ In the several places that the space lacking, one has been added.
The list of Illustrations and the text refer to Plates XVI. and XVII., which will appear in the 2nd volume of this work.
Errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here. The corrections below refer to page and line in the original printed text. The prefix ‘n’ refers to the note number as it is numbered in this text.
