Mistake in History of Monticello

A reader brought to my attention that I made four mistakes on Page 76. I put Julie in place of Lois in paragraph two and three. The mistake is somewhat obvious, but I told her I will correct it on the reprint of the book. She thinks I shouldn't even put the story in the reprint because it was so long ago. I told her that it was a history book and that's where it should go. She was not happy with my answer, but it's one of those truths that hurt. I'm truly sorry for the mistakes. I'd correct them with a pen and ink, but each book is sealed with plastic, which is why I'm not going there. I also can't afford to toss them in the trash.
