(2) In some instances, "cowpasture" was so spelled; these have now been hyphenated to conform with "calf-pasture". (3) "Boroughs" and "Settlements" have been deleted from the index, as neither is in the text. (4) "Federal City" has been linked directly in the index, as it is not mentioned under "Washington D.C.".
