+-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | Transcriber's note: | | | | Minor typographical errors have been corrected without note. | | | | Word combinations that appeared with and without hyphens were | | changed to the predominant form if it could be determined, or to | | the hyphenated form if it could not. | | | | Mid-paragraph illustrations have been moved between paragraphs | | and some illustrations have been moved closer to the text that | | references them. The paginations in the list of Illustrations | | were adjusted accordingly. | | | | Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant | | form was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed. | | | | Corrections in the spelling of names were made when those could | | be verified. Otherwise the variations were left as they were. | | | | Other corrections: | | Page 51: slahsh changed to slash. | | Page 71: ailes changed to bailes (open house day and night, | | _fistas_ and _bailes_). | | Page 284: plead changed to pled (the petty criminals pled guilty).| | | | Variation unchanged: | | Joe Garcia and José Garcia. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
