User Kelly Scott Franklin pointed out a typo in this review, and upon investigation I discovered that the problem was in the original rather than in our transcription. After discussing the long-standing ambiguity in our presentation of <sic> (i.e., that users cannot be sure, in materials for which we present no page images, whether typos are in the original or in our transcription) Ken, Kevin and I decided we should include a footnote. This accords with the protocol that we follow for journalism transcriptions. I have now added the note for the review that (re-)raised this issue.

Author and place of publication supplied for a review of Two Rivulets
Based on an annotation by Whitman located in the Harned collection of the Library of Congress, we can now attribute an unsigned review of Two Rivulets to Robert Dudley Adams. This review was published in The Evening News. I've now included the place of publication of this newspaper: Sidney (New South Wales, Australia). My thanks to Nikki for help in getting these changes made.
