Errata for The World As Will and Presentation Volume One

Hello,

 I noticed a very minor mistake in Volume One of The World As Will and Presentation, translated by Richard E. Aquila. I'm of the tech-industry now, where errata is a necessary evil, so ... I thought I'd point it out, just in case any other fixes need be made in later printings/editions.

 On page 396, in the last sentence of the first full paragraph, we have this text:

"Someone who is carried off as a captive by brigands, e.g., by pirates, has the right the kill them for the sake of his liberation, not only with overt violence, but also by devious means."

 This should in fact be (emphasis my own):

"Someone who is carried off as a captive by brigands, e.g., by pirates, has the right *to* kill them for the sake of his liberation, not only with overt violence, but also by devious means."

 If this should be forwarded to someone else, please just let me know.

 Thanks!
