Transcriber's Notes
Inconsistencies in punctuation, especially in the index and tables, have
been corrected silently.
Despite the presence of copious quoted material which may or may not
reproduce errors in the originals, minor typographic and spelling errors
likely due to printer's errors, have been corrected. When a lapse of
spelling or grammar seems to be the author's, it is noted and retained.
An attempt is made to make consistent the spelling of the many proper
names in this text, where it is clear that each reference is to a single
person. As an example, the name 'De Graw' appears both with and without
a space. In the Contents, the town of Jaruco appears as ‘Jaruca’ and has
been corrected.
On p. 186, the word 'Czarovitch' is also spelled 'Czarowitch'. Both are
retained as printed.
On p. 457, the name "Grace O. Isaaca" most likely should be "Grace G.
Isaacs". A woman of that name was active in community life in Walla
Walla, WA and would have been 33 at the time indicated.
On p. 513, the footnote for "brassards" is missing its symbol, which has
been added.
On p. 530, a heavy black border underlining the inscription "To the dead
of the Maine" is indicated as [ BLACK BORDER ]
On p. 593, the name "Mancrede" is most likely a reference to a Dr.
Nancrede, mentioned in the same list of surgeons on p. 590. The name has
been changed to "Nancrede".
In the Index, on p. 688, the reference to a letter from the Spanish Red
Cross does not have a page reference. It may be an incomplete reference
to the Diploma of Gratitude from the Red Cross of Spain on p. 592. It is
left blank here as well.
In the Index and the text, mention of the "Duke of Parmella should have
been "Duke of Palmella", which appears correctly elsewhere. Both have been
corrected.
No systematic attempt was made to verify the accuracy of page references
as printed in the index or table of contents. However, one error has
been corrected. The final reference in the Contents to the section on
'Notes' was printed as p. 683. That section begins on p. 682, and has
been corrected.
Other issues are noted below and their resolutions described below.
