Transcriber’s Note:
In this work, all spellings and punctuation were
reproduced from the original work except in the very few cases where an obvious typo occurred. These typos are corrected without comment.
In the original volumes in this set, each even-numbered page had a header consisting of the page number, the volume title, and the chapter number. The odd-numbered page header consisted of the year of the diary entry, a subject phrase, and the page number. In this set of ebooks, the year is included as part of the date (which in the original volume were in the form reproduced here, minus the year). The subject phrase has been converted to sidenotes located below the relevant page number.
In the original book set, consisting of three volumes, the master index was in Volume 3. In this set of ebooks, the index has been duplicated into each of the other volumes. Navigation links were created to the entries for the current volume.
