Transcriber's Note

For this txt-version italics were surrounded with _underscores_, words

in Old English font with +signs+, and small capitals changed to all

capitals.

A few errors in punctuation were corrected silently. Also the following

corrections were made, on page

152 "TRAGDEY" changed to "TRAGEDY" (In chapter header)

170 "Todhetly" changed to "Todhetley" (from Mr. Todhetley. That was)

188 "bank-notes" changed to "bank-note" (the bank-note did not turn

up)

223 "by-and-bye" changed to "by-and-by" (would join them by-and-by.)

239 "Danäe" changed to "Danaë" (Jupiter went courting Danaë)

284 "I" added (Section header)

324 "an" changed to "as" (give up Tom Rivers also, as you will)

349 "a" added (than he had ever taken of a baby yet).

Otherwise the original was preserved, including inconsistent spelling

and hyphenation.
