* Two missing quotation marks have been inserted. * “interupted” has been changed to “interrupted” (Ch. XI). * “followng” has been changed to “following” (Ch. XII). * “But’s there’s” has been changed to “But there’s” (Ch. XIX). * “a few minutes, time” has been changed to “a few minutes’ time” (Ch. XXII). * “intrudng” has been changed to “intruding” (Ch. XXIX). * “convicition” has been changed to “conviction” (Ch. XXXVII). Additionally, in the original text of Chapter XXIV, the column headings in the list of suspects were only repeated once per page (i.e., a resumption of the list appearing lower on the same page would omit the column headings). For this transcription, the column headings are included with each resumption.
