Transcriber's Note: Italic text is denoted by underscores and bold text by =equal signs=.

The original text contains many unclosed quotes that are obviously the author's intention. These have been left as the original.

Line 19979: "bone or feather or flesh. Study may superadd properties" 'superadd' could be 'separate'.

Every effort has been made to replicate this text as faithfully as possible.

Minor typographical errors have been corrected.

Variations in hyphenation of the word "Sandboat/Sand-boat" have been left unchanged.

In the original version the formatting of the conversations between the real world and the spirit world is often confusing. In this transcripton I have adopted the following layout. Conversations or questions arising from the real world - left justified. Conversations or questions arising from the spirit world and anotations by the author within these cross world conversations are shown as blockquotes.

Part II Chap. II: "prope funeratus / arboris ictu" changed to "prope funeratus arboris ictu" to avoid unwanted '/'.

Line 1568: SO_{2} = SO[subscript]2 i.e. Sulphur Dioxide.

Line 6389: "(Mrs. Leonard here repeated the alphabet......" no closing bracket in the original. Left unchanged.

Line 10366: Unnecessary ")" removed. Typographical error.
