TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE
Footnote anchors are denoted by [number], and the footnotes have beenplaced at the end of the book. Many of the Tables have associatedfootnotes, which have been kept at the bottom of that table andlabelled as a ‘note’ rather than a footnote. These note anchors aredenoted by {number}.
Some Tables were very wide; these have been split into twoparts, with the first column of the first part being repeated in theother part. On handheld devices some Tables may need to be viewed ina small font to see all the columns.
In those Tables with ‘court number’ from 1 to 29 as a header, courtnumber 11 is always missing; this is not an error, it is absent inthe original text.
Some other minor changes to the text are noted at the end of the book.
