Poser 329 - Minute book of Lumphanan Free Church, 1876

This week's poser is taken from the minute book of Lumphanan Free Church, Aberdeenshire, in 1876 (National Records of Scotland, CH3/737/1 page 29). Churches were very much involved in the education of children and this extract deals with the case of a teacher.

The hand is fairly typical and the clerk is consistent in the way the letters are formed. You might find some of the capital letters as well as letters formed by minims troublesome.
