Transcription Notes:
This page has 2 main columns. The [Give reasons for deficiency...} goes for 10 lines. --- Fixed the weird transcribing. This project has not been transcribed as columns in its many past sections so unless instructions dictate it would be strange to change that now, also columns need proper [[column]] markings, which this doesn't have. Also, transcription notes should not be placed in the texts, typos are transcribed as is. And answers should be placed where they are written, not where they should have been written. Removed bleedthrough text on "kind of work section" as it is on the next page. Also added ink blot obscured sections. Leaving open for unknowns. ---------- Reopened for Editing 2023-09-30 10:06:45 there is no such notation as "obscured strikethrough" read instructions
