Physical Characteristics:

Foliation: the foliation sequence (used for referencing) commences at the inside front cover with 1 and terminates at the inside back cover with 477; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio. A previous foliation sequence, which is also circled, has been superseded and therefore crossed out.

Former External References:

Volume 128

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 to the rear of the volume. The order of the enclosures within each despatch varies between chronological, approximate chronological and non-chronological. The enclosures within each despatch are numbered and, as neither the despatch itself is included nor an abstract of contents, the first enclosure is always No. 3. The enclosure numbers are recorded on the verso of the last folio of each enclosure, along with a summary description of each enclosure.
