I'm working on Ralph Waldo Emerson's 'The Conduct of Life' as published in 1876 by James R. Osgood and Company. <br>
<br>
I harvested the images from Google Print, though they now seem to have
disappeared from Google's site. The images were made from a copy at
Harvard College Widener Library: they appear to have two copies:<br>

Punctuation marks are not always clear or have sometimes dropped out on
the images. I was wondering if someone could check the following
against a paper copy of the 1876 edition:<br>
<br>
verso (line 3): Is there a period after 'Massachusetts'?<br>
TOC (line 2): Is there a period after 'Page'?<br>
page -1 (line 4): Is there a semicolon after 'bare'?<br>
page -1 (line -1): Is there a period after 'creates'?<br>
page 12 (line 11): Is there a semicolon after 'slate'?<br>
page 58 (line 6): Is 'baby jumper' hyphenated?<br>
page 74 (line 4): Is there a semicolon after 'nature'?<br>
page 179 (footnote): Is there a period after 'worms'?<br>
page 245 (line 10): Is there a semicolon after 'wave'?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
