								<note type="handwriting">Handwriting is largely clear and legible. There are crossed
									uprights and uncrossed t’s, as well as undotted i’s and dotted e’s, which have
									been corrected by the transcriber.</note>
								<note type="paper">Several small sheets folded into a booklet and bound with thread
									or twine (binding is loose in most places) are in good condition, with
									light-to-moderate staining and wear.</note>
								<note type="ink">Black-brown.</note>
								<note type="noteworthy">This journal picks up shortly after manuscript 787520.1
									leaves off. If the name of a person or place is uncertain, it has been left
									untagged. If Occom's intention regarding a word is uncertain, that word has been
									left unmodified in the modernized transcription. After entering events for January
									1-14, 1788, Occom returns, on 10 recto, to the date January 1 and records events
									from that date forward. On 10 verso, fifth line, last word, the meaning of the
									abbreviation “m” is uncertain, although it is likely “money.” On 12 recto, it is
									uncertain to whom Rev. Canada’s daughter refers, and so she has been left
									untagged. On 26 verso, the identity of Betty is uncertain; however, it is possibly
										<persName key="pers1531.ocp">Betty Peter</persName>. On 34 verso and 35 recto,
									the name of the lake is uncertain, and so it has been left untagged. On 35 verso,
									it is uncertain to which of his daughters Occom refers, and so she has been left
									untagged. On 36 verso, eighth line from bottom, last word, it is uncertain for
									what “L” is an abbreviation, although it is likely “legal.” On 43 recto, and 43
									and 44 verso, the name of the lake mentioned is uncertain; however, it is possibly
										<placeName key="place0181.ocp">Oneida Lake</placeName>. Although Occom does not
									specify whether or not he means father or son when he refers to <persName
										key="pers0721.ocp">Elijah Wympy</persName> in this document, it is, given the
									context, likely that that Occom is referring to <persName key="pers1347.ocp"
										>Elijah Wympy Jr.</persName> An editor, likely 19th-century, has added notes and
									overwrites in black ink throughout. These edits have not been transcribed.</note>
