Transcription Notes:
The writer has accidentally written the word "with" twice. (See wording on Page 156.) He is not writing "with such a lot." Also, in context of the letter, the word "lot" must mean "a group." Jlch I'm pretty sure it's W. H. (not N.) Jackson, per signature on letter contents (p. 156) -- Beth
