Transcriber's notes

In the School entry description of the school line 6-the end of the word "teacher" is illegible but I am assuming that there is a letter "s" at the end. As to whether it is an "apostrophe s" I am uncertain. Since apostrophes have been used in the previous column when referring to the names of the maps I have chosen to make this an apostrophe.
