Appendix: Transcription notes:
This etext was transcribed from a volume of the 22nd printing
The following modifications were applied while transcribing the

- Page 59, para 3, fixed mis-printed quotation mark
chapter 4

Limitations imposed by converting to plain ASCII:
- Throughout the printed book, in any quasi-mathematical passages
which use the variables "x" and "y", those variable names are
presented in italics. Italics are not available in plain ASCII.
I did not modify:
- The printed book sometimes uses the spelling "despatch", other
times "dispatch". Also, both "intrenchments" and "entrenchments".
- Chapter 12, page 245, "grewsome"
- There are a number of instances where the use of the comma in the
printed book seems to me inappropriate, mainly in terms of commas
inserted where I would not insert them, and also sometimes commas
lacking where I would provide them.
