The author refers to Laguna, Brazil, as ‘LaguÑa’. However, the index correctly removes the tilde. To avoid confusion, the text was corrected. The Index entry on p. 316, for John Boyes, garbles two subentries on line breaks: ‘join- the R.N.R.’ and ‘disappointment regards -ing certificate’. It seems probable that the ‘-ing’ was simply misplaced. The entires have been corrected to appear as ‘joining the R.N.R.’ and ‘disappointment regards certificate’. The references here are to the page and line in the original. | 9.21 | and on arriving at Lagu[Ñ/n]a | Replaced. | | 92.12 | conversations with Ka[r]uri | Inserted. | | 316.25 | join[ing] the R.N.R. | Added. | | 316.27 | disappointment regards[ ing] | Removed. | |
