  1. Chapter 2 has mutttered instead of muttered. It also has a capitalized second "He lives!" where the scan has "he lives!".
  2. Chapter 11 has kingEom instead of kingdom.
  3. Chapter 12 has buglike; I think that should be bug-like.
  4. Chapter 15 has castiron that should be cast-iron.
  5. Chapter 17 has oldfashioned that should be old-fashioned.
  6. Chapter 18 has pallace instead of palace.

The missing dashes are probably because the words were split across two lines. A PG transcription often has those kind of problems, because they remove the dashes from words split across lines without checking to see if they should still be there if they were all on one line. E.g., removing one from "al-ready" is correct, but from "old-fashioned" isn't.
