Faint dotted lines underneath the text indicate that more details about the clause can be found in the transcriber notes. In the HTML file, you can hover over the faint dotted line and you will receive an alert stating this fact. Detailed Notes: On page 12, the order of 'in them' and 'that he surpassed' was juxtaposed in the updated version, which reads like so: "It was said that he surpassed in them any man in the army;" In footnote [7], the volume of the Mass. Hist. Soc. reference was changed in the updated version to xiv. On page 25, the left handed double quote was missing from the quote attributed to Bishop Meade. This quote was missing in both versions of the book that we consulted. We made a best-guess as to where the author intended to begin the quote from Meade. See the paragraph on page 25 ending with the following clause: “the most fertile part of Virginia.” On page 34, a period replaced the colon in the updated version. We did not change the original text, which reads: Jefferson wrote to Marshall the following note: On page 35, 'Genl. Marshall' replaced 'Genl-Marshall' in the text. We also changed the text of the original book, because a) the original words were a typo, and b) retaining the typo is a distraction, because c) the spelling of 'Genl. Marshall' appears several lines later in the text. On page 72, has 'settled by' replaced 'presented to' in an updated version of the following sentence: But not until 1803, early in Marshall’s time, was the point judicially presented to the Supreme Court. On page 105, 'I shall speak' replaced 'I have spoken.' in an updated version of the text. We retained the original mistake by the author, but placed a link to the relevant information in the text.
