Transcriber’s Notes
Depending on the hard- and software used and their settings, not all
elements may display as intended; some of the larger tables are best
viewed on a wide screen in a wide window.
Inconsistent spelling, hyphenation, lay-out and use of accents and
thousands separators have been retained except as listed below.
The (inconsistent) use of spaces, underscores, hyphens etc. to
indicate blanks where names, data etc. need to be inserted has not
been standardised.
page 4, Dr. Ackland: possibly Henry Acland.
page 137, 855 décicarcel-cubes: probably the decimal point is missing.
page 372, Ranson’s: should possibly be Ransom’s (cf. Table of
Contents) or vice versa.
Index: not all items are given in alphabetical order, this has not
been corrected.
