Notes

Unknown author, written in cursive Position Notes: Located at the top of the back, centered. Text is upside-down in relation to the primary text of the page. It can speculated with a very high degree of certainty that the number 34 corresponds in some way to a tracking, or identifying, number assigned to the farmer J.A. Brown. This is due to the fact that the primary text of the document on the front contains a field for name indicated by "Mr." and a blank line. Instead of a name however the number 34 was written in this field. This corresponds to the number 34 which appears on the inscription.
