This probably was a contraction of “mm” and it was replaced by those letters. ○ Many inconsistencies in dating were left as they appeared on the printed page. ○ Missing or obscured punctuation was silently corrected. ○ Typographical errors were silently corrected. ○ Inconsistent spelling and hyphenation were made consistent only when a predominant form was found in this book. ○ The use of a carat (^) before a letter, or letters, shows it was intended to be a superscript abbreviation, as in “w^{ch}.” (which) or “M^{rs.}” (Mrs.). ○ Text that was in italics is enclosed by underscores (_italics_).
