Transcriber's Note

1. In addition to correcting misprints and mispellings in the original text, I have also corrected many basic single-word grammatical errors without comment. These errors probably owe to Boudin's slavic native language: missing or extraneous 'a's and 'the's, confusion between 'is' and 'are', etc. More complex errors have either been left unchanged, or in important cases have been corrected and noted with a transcriber's footnote.
