Transcriber's Notes
Italicized phrases are presented by surrounding the text with _underscores_. Boldface phrases are presented by surrounding the text with =equal= signs. Small capitals have been rendered in full capitals.
Punctuation has been standardized. Minor spelling and typographic errors have been corrected silently, except as noted below.
"some one" and "someone" are used interchangeably throughout the book, and all occurrences have been left as printed.
On the second page (unnumbered), "12" added before "mo. Cloth. Illustrated."
"Imposter" left as is on page 6 (instead of being changed to "impostor") as it was sometimes spelled "imposter" in the time period.
Three instances of "stop cock" changed to "stop-cock" to be internally consistent and consistent with contemporary (1910's) usage.
Several instances of "employe" left as is, as it appears that way three times in the book and was written that way occasionally in the time period.
The word "distinguished" has been changed to "extinguished" on page 114.
On page 117, "a-way" has been left as is, as it appears in dialectic speech.
On page 118, "bulge" has been changed to "budge", as "bulge" doesn't make sense, even as dialect.
One sentence near the bottom of page 134 ("Dave led the way to a thick copse. The woman") was in the text twice (several paragraphs apart), and the first instance has been removed.
On page 202, "Rodger" has been changed to "Roger" to be consistent with other usage in the book.
