Textual Notes
[Headnote]

These notes specify those features of the text discussed generally in the textual introduction, record all of Mark Twain’s marginalia in the manuscript, and discuss adopted readings and aspects of Mark Twain’s revision which require fuller explanation. When canceled letters or words are included in quotations, they appear as struck through: and then. Superscript letters and figures are lowered to the line. Unless otherwise stated, the marginal notes are written in the same ink as the manuscript at that point. Complete citations for works referred to by short title will be found on page 549.
