In Footnote [156], a period is contained within the superscript and was left unchanged. Other superscripts used to abbreviate words sometimes display one or more periods below the superscripted letters. Multiple periods were changed to a single period, and the period was moved to follow the abbreviated word. Superscripts are preceded by a carat. Where multiple letters are contained in the superscript, they are enclosed in braces, like this: 16^{th}. On page 274, the word ‘Cachet’ appears inside a circle, as though to represent an official stamp. Within quotations, misspelled words, missing punctuation, and alternate use of accents were not changed. Otherwise, accents were adjusted, unprinted periods were added to ends of sentences, missing spaces were added between words, missing open quote marks were added to the beginning of quotations continued from one paragraph to the following, and punctuation in the index was adjusted for consistency. Other changes: In Footnote [16], ‘Vérandrie’ was changed to ‘Vérendrye,’ ‘... la Vérandrye et donnée ...’ In the Index: under ‘D’Argenson,’ the reference ‘see Argenson, D’ does not exist. under ‘New Jersey refuses to comply,’ the book number was changed from ii. to i. under the entry ‘Scalps, Indian,’ ‘Massachuchusetts’ was changed to ‘Massachusetts.’ End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of France and England in North America, Volume VII: A Half-Century of Conflict, Vol 2, by Francis Parkman
