Chapter 12: Star of the West

- The word "marquee" in chapter 15 was presented in the printed
book with an accented "e"

I did not modify:

- The following sentence in chapter 1 does not seem quite right,
but I am not sure how to change it, if I would change it:

George Kenton, having inherited much land in Kentucky, and two or
three plantations further south had added to his property by good
management.

- There are a number of instances where the use of the comma in the
printed book seems to me inappropriate, mainly in terms of commas
inserted where I would not insert them, and also sometimes commas
lacking where I would provide them. However, I have adhered to
the punctuation as printed (except for obvious printing errors,
which are noted above).

For example:

His abounding youth made him consider as weak and unworthy, an
emotion which a man would merely have reckoned as natural.

Forty or fifty thousand, men, women and children, were looking on,
but nothing more than a murmur ran through the great mass.

The sea itself, is against them.

Two heavier crashes showed that the cannon were also coming into
play, and one shell striking within the fort, exploded, wounding
a half dozen men.

The belt of forest into which he had ridden, ran along the crest
of a hill, where the soil evidently had been considered too thin
for profitable cultivation.

- Each section of verse is formatted to appear similar to its
presentation in the printed book. Consequently: some verse is
indented more than others, some is left-aligned, some is
staggered on the left margin, some is center-aligned.

- The author sometimes uses a technique whereby a paragraph introducing
a quotation ends with a colon, with the quotation following as the
next paragraph.
