Could someone give me more information about the source of this one? It appears to be an alternate transcription of the same book as in #9363, though while this transcription gives a bit more copyright information, it's also appears to be missing some of the content of the original (such as the acknowledgements and introduction). It also has some odd spellings (like "Magasine" in some of the story attributions, even though "Magazine" is used elsewhere in this etext, and in the page image sources I've found for this book.) For the moment I'll just record #22319 as an alternate version of #9363, which will remain what I link to from the Online Books Page. But if there's a particular edition that this one is tracking that's different from #9363, and has the differences I've described above, then I'll consider a separate listing for this one. Thanks, John Mark Ockerbloom David Widger wrote:
