Transcriber's notes

Budshaw: 3 words or parts of words are underlined: 2nd sentence, "Bad", 4th sentence "Shaw" and "budd" of the word "budding".

2 words appear to have been written hastily, and are incomplete - "th" for "the" and "hav" in final sentence.

Fairybank Mill: The "Authorities for spelling" section states "Same as above", referring to the fact that, in the original document, the entry for Fairybank Mill is the last on the page, after Fairybank.
