Transcriber’s Notes Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed. The spelling of non-English words was not reviewed. Simple typographical errors were corrected; occasional unbalanced quotation marks retained. Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained; occurrences of inconsistent hyphenation have not been changed. Text mostly uses “confident” where modern spelling is “confidant”, but does use “confidant” once. Both variations retained here. Text uses both “cotemporary” and “contemporary”; both variations retained here. Text sometimes has a space in “M.P.” and sometimes not; both variations retained here. Page 37: “dismissed the service” was printed that way. Page 277: “villanous” was printed that way. Page 300: “She bade Lord Bute try” was printed as “bad”; changed here.
