In footnotes 75 and 90, on pages 957 and 965 respectively of Law and History Review volume 29 number 4 (November 2011), the title of Richard Price's Alabi's World is misspelled as Alibi's World. The footnotes, with the correct spelling, are as follows:

75. Schumann, SD Wörter-buch, 76; Riemer, “Wörterbuch,” 301–2; Riemer, “Mitteilungen,” in Staehelin, Mission, vol. 3, part 2, 265–66; and Price, Alabi's World, 373–74.

90. Riemer, “Mitteilungen,” in Staehelin, Mission, vol. 3, part 2, 267–68 and Price, Alabi's World, 374–75. In addition, Schumann includes the word “asempreh” in his Saramaccan–German dictionary and defines it as “a kind of torture: a cord with a knot is bound around the head and tightened very firmly in order to compel a malefactor to confession” (SD Wörter-buch, 49).
