I'm turning back to this, and am uncertain how to structure the book's two chapters: an "editor's narrative" and then the actual memoirs of the sinner. No actual front matter.
Each chapter begins with a faux half-title page -- the idea being you are finally reading the memoir once you reach its 2nd half title.
Here's the order:
THE PRIVATE MEMOIRS AND CONFESSIONS OF A JUSTIFIED SINNER
"The Editor's Narrative" half-title
Editor's Narrative, c. 100 pages
"Private Memoirs and Confession of a Sinner" half-title. (Some editions have The Private Memoirs and Confessions ... as the half-title instead.)
Private Memoirs and Confession of a Sinner, Written by Himself c. 200 pages -- note that the chapter title is not the same as the book title
Should I treat the Narrative like a prologue, much like The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket? Or not overthink it and have two chapters, with no half titles?
Here's a link to a scan, with the Contents. (This edition's introduction is not worth keeping, and isn't original.)
And here's the start of the "Memoirs"
