Since this seems to be thechoice of the Linotype operator, not the author, it has been changed to modern usage. Differing spellings of"Lafayette" and "judgment" have been standardized. The author's spelling of "Pittsburg", "Alleghanies","Tombs", "McDougall", and "Breckenridge" has been retained.Hyphenations at the end of lines have been eliminated wherever possible.
