*Some pages were very faded, damaged, or omitted when scanned, therefore the indexing of the text is not always accurate, sometimes making manual browsing necessary. For example, "Hull" at times may be indexed as "Hall", or a faded section may appear as "11ull" or some other approximation, rendering the index useless. Be aware that if pages were omitted during scanning, this may cause NewspaperArchive.com's page number to differ from the newspaper's actual page number. | *Some pages were very faded, damaged, or omitted when scanned, therefore the indexing of the text is not always accurate, sometimes making manual browsing necessary.
