Miscellaneous Documents Pages 70-79

One thing to say:  I wish the clerks, who were typing these 1914-1917 records would have cleaned their typewriter keys or replaced their typewriter ribbons more often.  You'll see some "?" marks starting to appear in my name transcriptions, as the letters o, a, e and some others, are starting to become indistinguishable, since they're looking like one "blob".  Ugh!!
