Note: the following invoice and inventory
was extremely difficult to transcribe, probably for several reasons, including
the handwriting, the spelling of the person doing the invoice and a lack of
familiarity on my part with some of the products being invoiced meaning that I
was unable to decipher the handwriting. I apologize for the poor quality of the
transcription.
