Hyphenation Record
The following lists have been inserted at the request of the editorial staff of the
Institute of Early American History and Culture. The list immediately below
records possible compound words that were hyphenated at the end of the line in the
copy text. In each case the editor had to decide for the present edition whether to
print the word as a single word or as a hyphenated compound. The material before
the bracket indicates how the word is printed in the present edition; the material
after the bracket indicates how the word was broken in the original. The wavy dash
symbol indicates that the form of the word has been unchanged from the copy text.
Numerals refer to the page number of the copy text (the boldface numerals in the
margin in this edition) and to the line number (counting down from the boldface
number) in the present edition.
