The editors tell us in their afterword "These [Horn's narrative] we have
left as he composed them, save for correction of obvious errors, division
into chapters, and titling those chapters and his volumes." (409)  Which
raises the (unanswerable) questions: what did the editors consider to be
"obvious errors," and how frequent were they?
