The 1915 edition published by T. Fisher Unwin was used a secondary

source, especially to check the hyphenation of compound words printed

at the end of a line in the primary source. Images of this edition are

available at:

The following changes were noted:

-- The name "René" is almost always printed in the source text with

the acute over the second "e". The few cases where the name was

printed as "Réne" have been changed for consistency.

-- p. 189: so that he could meet Casey."--Deleted the closing

quotation mark at the end of the paragraph.

-- p. 209: Thrigby's changing, and things are queer all

round.--Changed "Thrigby's" to "Thrigsby's".
