Notes

Chap. 15, devoted to the Eastern Dispensary, contains multiple references to the Jews; see also chap. 31 for pawnbroking activity. For the Jewish-owned shops on Chatham St. and their reputation for dishonesty and shoddy clothing (some garments are not sewn but are glued together!), see pp. 474-75. Also found in a low-priced edition that omits the full- page engravings and the steel-plate portraits.
