Transcription Notes:
missing text in first column header could be 'Male' as second column is 'Female'First column is partially cut off so numbers are not accurate.
Lines 5 and 6 of data are confused.
* Pages 273 and 274 are two halves of the same report, so I have combined the two together. Unfortunately, you combined the incorrect form - reinserted what was previously transcribed. You should only transcribe what is on the page and not make up content
