Transcription Notes:
Edited: Wm is for William, Viz means namely, not a table, just a list, 'do' used like ditto marks, Geo is for George
Noticed that the sum total of 365.42 doesn't seem to add up unless the 4th monetary amount is 150. What is written does not appear so, but I am unsure as to what is written there.
