Transcriber's Note

Transcriber’s Note

Some corrections were made where printer’s errors were most likely, as described in the Note at the end of the text. Other than those corrections, no changes to spelling have been made. Hyphenation of words at line or page breaks are removed if other instances of the word warrant it.

The ‘dateline’ of each letter, which is right justified in the original, is here presented as a subtitle to each header.
