Original 38-Across clue had "1860"; corrected to "1859." In 139-Down clue, SYR is clued as "Beirut is its capital: Abbr.," but Lebanon was a separate nation by 1946 (gaining its independence in 1943), so Beirut was no longer in Syria.

NYT misspelled the constructor name on this one. P. J. Lammana should be P. J. Lamanna.

In 22-Across, IGOROT is clued as "Indonesian of northern Luzon.," but Luzon (where the Igorot live) is in the Philippines. In original, number of clue for 62-Down was mistyped as 63.
