TWENTY-FOUR (24) PAGES
divided into six sections of four pages each.
--Written quite legibly in dark-brown ink, on old brownish LAID-PAPER with excellent rag-content. The first three sections of paper are WATERMARKED with the name "W. KINGSFORD." The last three sections of paper are WATERMARKED with an Elaborate Design and with the date "1803."
--Each page measures about 7.5 x 9 inches.
--Two horizontal fold lines across pages. Some tears and holes in the corners of these fold lines, but there is almost no separation. the back page has worst corner damage (see below). There are some spots and stains on the pages, etc., but they are otherwise in quite good condition with dark, legible writing on paper of excellent rag content.
Several different views of the entire document (front & reverse):
