The illustration near page 199 includes a numbered key, but some of the
numbers in the illustration are hard to find or read. The Transcriber
has included two versions of this illustration: the original and an
annotated one, in which those numbers appear in red (or gray, depending
on the reading device). Two of those numbers, 1 and 18, may be in the
wrong places.
The key numbers in the illustration near page 319 are the original
ones. They are in ascending sequence clockwise, with the exception of
12 and 11.
The map following page 520 did not have a caption. As it was the only
illustration in the book without a caption, Transcriber copied its
description from the List of Illustrations and used it as the caption.
The index was not checked for proper alphabetization or correct page
references. Most of the references are to pages in the other three
volumes of this series; all four volumes are available at no charge

Volume I: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/71794
Volume II: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/71795

In the original book, the index entries for "Biddle, Captain Nicholas"
referring to Volume II. actually refer to his nephew, "Biddle, James",
and some of those are in Volume III. In this ebook, those entries have
been corrected, but the index may contain other errors.
