[This page does not include a clear year, but the year 1810 has been supplied to this page. This section of the manuscript volume is arranged in chronological order with the "calendar" pages for a specific year preceeding the "entry" pages for the same year. Because pages 35 and 36 contain the calendar for 1809, pages 37 and 38 are missing from this manuscript volume, and page 40 is comprised of entries for 1810, the year 1810 has been assigned to page 39.]
