Transcriber's notes
Header: faint pencilling adding a '?' and text 'Plan No. 7 10', which seems to have been omitted originally.
WHITE DOD: the author depicts the possessive apostrophe as a 'comma'. I have shown that. I also adjusted the spacing in the Various modes column to align the Authorities correctly.
