When originally published each installment consisted of several chapters; this structure has been kept in this e-text. The second, third, and fourth installments included a synopsis of previous chapters; for some reason it was dropped from the fifth and sixth. These synopses have also been retained. For clarity various letters and newspaper stories quoted in the text have been indented. Decorative letters were used at the start of the first four episodes, and have been retained; the final two parts were printed with plain lettering.
