You might find that the pdf meets your needs, otherwise you could use it as a basis for correcting the poor quality text file.
I used the Internet Archive PDF versions as the basis for several volumes of the Harvard Classics series. I did run them through my own OCR as the provided OCR texts were a bit buggy (and the redone ones far better.) IA is a great resource.
