Transcription Notes:
Transcribed in the Journal box over the transcription box so the the transcription looks like the Journal page. Typed lines to show calculations rather than using [[underlined]]. This sheet overlays, p 18. It appears that p 13 overlays p 15 and both obscure part of p 18. When 13 & 15 are folded up you can see the top of p 18. When p 14 is folded up you can see the bottom of p 18. Here is plan of attack:
transcribe p 13; (overlying p 15) - done
transcribe p 14; (overlying p 18) - done
transcribe p 15; (overlying p 18) - done
transcribe p 16 (just top part 18 obscured by 15;
transcribe p 17 (just middle 18 obscured by p 15;
transcribe p 18 (just bottom 18 obscured by p 14.
