The above label sits upon what appears to be Prof. Westerink’s letter from our film WEST.MAD.2.14 (q.v.), but the film in fact is of Scorialensis υ.iii.17.

Several sections, originally spliced together, respliced by us with new tape.

The film is mostly legible, though a bit blurred in the first dozen or so frames. Words in other color (red?) slightly less legible; perhaps better if this negative film copied into positive. The film is otherwise clear and legible.

113r Something has found its way onto the film and left a mark partially affecting about five lines (of 30), but most of it can still be made out.
