Transcription Notes:
The triple-underline under "n" in "new" is a copy-editor's mark, meaning to capitalize that one letter. deleted Gua- to keep "Guadalupe" together on next page. Later transcriber: Actually, the hyphen rule says that the word goes on the first page. Moved all of "Guadelupe;" here.
