From the editor ...

... An excerpt from the editor's introduction to Mark Twain's Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn: The NewSouth Edition. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

  1. The a "visible sense of relief" the editor "sensed" during lectures as a result of his having substituted in the word "slave" is seen by him as an indication that the substitution was a good idea. I would argue that it better indicates that it was a bad idea.
