Transcription Notes:
Messrs abbreviation of Messieurs - also end of page no longer used-see general insructions Refers to Lewis Stephanie Esq or Messrs Kelborne + Latta" doesn't look right. Should it be "Refers to Lewis Stephanie Esq or Mefas Kelborne + Latta" -- In other journals of this Bureau, the same issue has come up and the consensus seems to be that Mefs and Mefss = Miss and Misses respectively.
