[note (type: abstract): Occom details his travels as an itinerant preacher through Long Island, Southern New England and Eastern New York.][note (type: handwriting): Occom's hand is largely clear and legible. There are some crossed l’s and uncrossed t’s, which transcriber has corrected. Occom occasionally renders the numeral 1 as a lower case i, which the transcriber has corrected.][note (type: paper): Small pages folded into a booklet and bound with thread/twine are in good-to-fair condition, with light-to-moderate staining and wear. The outside cover is of a different, rougher paper than the pages of the journal.][note (type: ink): Brown ink varies in intensity.][note (type: noteworthy): There are several carets to indicate above-line additions, yet the additions they indicate are non-existent. There are edits throughout, likely 19th-century, made in black ink; these edits have been ignored by the transcriber. On nine verso, there is a dot that looks like a period, but appears to actually be a piece of lint. On 15 verso, it is uncertain to whom Occom refers when he mentions "my Daughter," though it is likely Olive Adams[pers0397.ocp]. People and places whose names are illegible have not been tagged.]
