- User Conditions:
- Physical Characteristics:
- The foliation is in pencil in the top right corner. Numbering starts on the first folio with 1 and ends on the back cover, with 17. The first 4 folios seem extracted from another file, because they refer to an earlier foliation system.
- Former External References:
- English Office Series: 15/34-I
- Arrangement:
- File papers are arranged chronologically. They are followed by file notes (folios 13-16), which include a chronological list of all the documents that used to be kept in the file. Only the first several documents listed (folio 13) remain. The list records their document reference number and folio number, as well as a simple running number from 1 to 5, which has been written on each circulation slip. These numbers help to identify and locate the surviving documents in the file.
