Part 26

Page 227--mentions a man who "descended to the upper story"--this should probably read "ascended to the upper story" but has been preserved as printed.

Page 278--mentions a man "now, when young and old"--this may be an error for "young and bold" but has been preserved as printed.

A number of the notes to the stories refer to other stories. On page 17, there is a reference to No. 81. There is no story with this number, and, as the transcriber was unable to determine which story the author was referring to, it has been preserved as printed.

The following amendments to references have also been made:
