There are two indexes in this volume, a General Index and a Leicester Index. The first consists of all entries other than those in the Leicester Index, the second consists of entries which would otherwise begin with the word 'Leicester'. Cross-references to entries in the Leicester Index from entries in both the General Index and the Leicester Index are prefixed with the letter 'L.'
