Transcriber's Note:

Every effort has been made to replicate this text as faithfully as possible. A number of the original illustrations included internal references (page numbers) and the captions were not clear. These have been removed from the illustrations. The illustrations have been moved to just below or beside the text to which they refer. The captions have been added below the relevant illustration. The illustration with the caption 'The procession had moved on....' was originally spread over two pages. These have been stitched together as a single illustration. A list of Illustrations has been added. Several page numbers will be found to be missing. These pages were blank pages in the original book.
