Transcription Notes:
Left page should be transcribed as the image on p29. Both pages should be transcribed consistently. -@siobhanleachman Made some minor edits to left page; ensured these changes were also made to page 29. -@mnathan Reviewed. Confirmed Saunt. Think it's J.W. Saunt whose collection is held at The Herbert Art Gallery and Museum, Coventry. -@siobhanleachman
