The final line of text refers to the printer, but is not entirely
legible. It would seem to refer to Benjamin Bensley (d. 1870).
Whoever he might have been, errors deemed most likely to be the
printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here. The references are
to the page and line in the original. The issues tabulated below
should be noted, along with the resolutions.
There were a number of instances in the text where quoted material was
missing either an opening or closing quotation mark. The proper
placement is not always obvious, but the most plausible choice has
been made in each case.
