Transcription Notes:
I would add the period for the section about furnishing.
I would also add the apostrophe to Sears and the 0 to the row before.
I would also add a period to 206 in the first row. There are also seven extra blank spaces.
An additional apostrophe is missing on Smith's School. I would remove nine of the blanks.
All of the rows have extra blanks.
I am not sure if we should add the numbers.
Thank you so much!! Since the edits were so minor I did not want to reopen for editing.
