In keeping with previous practice, where Bentham has amended numbers in pencil and I've commented on them in comment tags and for which you have subsequently included them in the finished folio, I have typed then deleted his initial figures and added the pencil amounts to this folio. Please amend if in this case you do not wish this to be included. --> | |||
