The transcript was checked against online OCR and the page images. Spelling is minimally normalized for legibility, and omitted text is marked by bracketed ellipses. The historical tone and value judgments belong to the 1905 publication. Its note cites Kazimir Ljubić, “Neretva i Nonkovići” (1870), pp. 83–91.
