Chapter 28
On Page 301, horse-back is hyphenated and split between two lines for spacing. There are eleven other occurrences of the word in these two volumes, and all are spelled without the hyphen. We also did not use the hyphen in the clause: mounted on horseback.
On Page 301, musket-shot is hyphenated and split between two lines for spacing in the clause: he saw within musket-shot a long line of British troops. We transcribed the word as musket-shot. See the notes in Chapter 7 for more details.
On Page 309, towns-people is hyphenated and split between two lines for spacing in the clause: a throng of towns-people. There is no occurrence of townspeople, towns-people or towns people in both volumes. We transcribed the word with the hyphen.
