Index

The reader is apprised that this Index is partial, and confined principally to such matters as might not be readily found by means of the chronological arrangement of the text. To events of familiar notoriety, and the actors in them, particularly those in the earlier and more summary portions of the Chronicle, it will be easy to refer without the intervention of an Index.
