Transcriber's Notes:
Passages in italics are indicated by _underscore_.
Superscripted letters are shown in {brackets}.
Additional spacing after some of the quotes is intentional to indicate
both the end of a quotation and the beginning of a new paragraph as
presented in the original text.
Footnote 71 does not contain a page number in the orignal.
Footnote 117 reads "Uunti" in the text, although it most likely should
be "Until."
Some quotes are opened with marks but are not closed. Obvious errors
have been silently closed, while those requiring interpretation have
been left open.
The following misprints have been corrected:
"neigbourhood" corrected to "neighbourhood" (page 21)
"my my" corrected to "my" (page 29)
"neigbours corrected to "neighbours" (page 40)
"lord s" corrected to "lord's" (page 45)
"fourand" corrected to "four-and" (page 195)
"the the" corrected to "the" (page 209)
"philosopical" corrected to "philosophical" (page 243)
"implicity" corrected to "implicitly" (page 270)
"fiercly" corrected to "fiercely" (page 303)
"deficiences" corrected to "deficiencies" (page 304)
"Dnmfries" corrected to "Dumfries" (footnote 25)
Other than the corrections listed above, printer's inconsistencies in
spelling and hyphenation usage have been retained.
