Transcription Notes:
The Transcription Center has come back with some answers to my queries and I understand will be editing instructions soon. In the meantime I'll leave notes. They want the author transcribed as typed or corrected on the card. So for this card the author should be Thumb.
The number 215 IS the Herbarium number.
British East Africa covered roughly what is now known as Kenya. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Africa_Protectorate. -@siobhanleachman
