ERRATUM. (Page 15.)

Owing to the averages given in the table on page 15 being printed from some incomplete manuscript they are incorrect. It is obvious that the proper averages are—

16¼ 21 20¾ 20¾
Transcriber's Note: The corrections in the above erratum have been applied. The handwritten pages entitled 'Terminology' and 'Alphabet Variants' have been moved to the beginning of their relevant chapters. Hyphenation and punctuation have been standardised.
