Note. The next sheet begins with practically the same preamble as appeared on the first sheet. Most of the signatures on this second sheet are written in lead pencil. It has been copied on two smaller sheets, and as is almost always the case, the copy shows a number of variations in the spelling of the names. The most conspicuous of these changes have been noted, although the two smaller sheets have not been copied. The changes will be found in brackets, beneath the names as they appear in the original list.
