Lines 3-54 - In many transactions on this page, GW wrote several words and phrases in large characters and closer to the left margin of the folio page than the other words in the transaction. In an effort to reproduce as much as possible the format of the manuscript ledger, the editors have placed these words and phrases under the column headed "Account Name," though they do not represent account holders.
