I did not include them due to formatting issues, so if they should be included, how would you like me to indicate them?

BLLarson
BLLarsonIt appears "City" has ben struck through on item 27 in the document. Should it be struck through in the transcription? If so, that may need to be done by the person who reviews this.5800_01_1891_Page_115800_01_1891City of Seattle Records

Seattle Municipal ArchivesGreat questions! Words in stationary letterhead do not need to be transcribed. For words broken up as originally written, it works fine to just transcribe the word in full.991627_Page_2991627City of Seattle Records

Seattle Municipal ArchivesHello, and so sorry for the late reply! I think what you've done works well - using the "|" to indicate columns is a great way to separate the text on these pages. Thank you for asking!SEACPMVolCindex_Page_06SEACPMvolCindexCity of Seattle Records

Harpwench
HarpwenchI wasn't sure if you wanted this in columns, so I guess that it is easier taking out the columnar symbols than putting them in. Please let me know how to do this for future transcription. Thank you.7SEACPM18880720City of Seattle Records

HarpwenchWhen there is a ditto mark, would you like me to use a " sign or spell the words out? I used the " marks, but I would be happy to change them if you want me to.5SEACPM18880706City of Seattle Records
Emilie
EmilieA few questions on this: 1. The "96" in text, does that need to be added anywhere? 2. There is a tiny ink blot or image. Should that be indicated in some way? 3. The red ink stamp, is there a special way to indicate this when transcribing? 4...991627_Page_1991627City of Seattle Records

EmilieHow does one handle printed stationary headings? Are they put in as part of the text? At the beginning before the hand written portion?991627_Page_2991627City of Seattle Records
Harpwench
HarpwenchHello. I am very interested in transcribing these pages and wondered how you would like me to transcribe these tables. Should I just use the table protocols used in other projects (using the "|" bar to delineate columns)? SEACPMVolCindex_Page_01SEACPMvolCindexCity of Seattle Records
