Transcriber Notes:  This was written in old script.  Many of the S's were 
written in the old style, which appears as a backwards cursive f.  I was 
unable to represent this in plain text.  The old style ff' representing a 
capital F is typed as in the record.  Many of the abbreviated words ending in a 
period, like Benja. were written with a superscript last letter, which I was 
also unable to represent in plain text.
