Physical Characteristics:

Foliation: the foliation sequence (used for referencing) commences at the first folio with 1 and terminates at the last folio with 700; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio. The foliation sequence does not include the front and back covers. A previous foliation sequence, which is also circled, has been superseded and therefore crossed out.

Arrangement:

The enclosures to each despatch (each Item) within the volume are separated by blue dividers. The despatches are arranged in chronological order from the front of the volume to the rear of the volume. The order of the enclosures within each despatch varies between chronological, approximate chronological and non-chronological.

For items IOR/L/PS/5/376, ff 279-409, ff 500-536 and ff 606-659 the enclosures within each despatch are preceded by an abstract of contents, in which the despatch itself (not included) is numbered 1, the abstract of contents 2, and the enclosures 3, 4, etc. The numbers listed in the abstract of contents are recorded for reference on the verso of the last folio of each enclosure, along with a summary description of each enclosure.
