Table of Contents

 

NOTE:  The final third of this Reel is difficult to read as a result of photographic deficiencies.

 

This original notice appears to be quite accurate.  After about paper 51 the images become extremely poor.  We have conducted 3 separate scans of two different microfilm reels, and have attempted to use the best results from each.  Some of the later reports remain completely illegible under all conditions.
