Transcription Notes:
The calculations at the top of page 220 show a comparison of two chronometers, probably the one carried by Hall [Re or Rescue chron.], and the Chron. on board the "George Henry." Mariners and explorers use chronometers to calculate how far west or east they are from Greenwich to estimate their Longitude. See page 452 for drawing of the relic. Koo-ou-le-arng's (Suzhi's) sketch. "Susy is spelled Suzhi in the book.
