Geep added a note to 160 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “Line 43 of transcription: "factory is both a catchword and the continuation of the word "satisfactory." I broke from the rule here of completing a divided word in the line in which it begins, as I have been doing for margina; notes for clarity of ...”
Geep added a note to 149 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “Please consult the above rules for line breaks, and read the surrounding transcriptions for conventions. "Senatus" also appears as "Senatus Academicus" and is not to be transcribed "Senators."”
Geep added a note to 147 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “The expression "cum his notis" (with these notes) should be italicized in any printed version. This is similar to "ad eundem" (at the same level), which shows up throughout these minutes.”
Geep added a note to 139 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “Line 6 of transcription: Professor Mowat inserts his initials (JBM) vertically through the marginal note of "a quarter of" as though to state his preference for that form rather than what is recorded as the text of the regulations.”
Geep added a note to 132 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “Transcription lines 12—15: Professor J. B. Mowat's signature is run vertically in the margin. Presumably these were his students, and should include line 16 as well.”
Geep added a note to 120 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “Dr. Mowat, who here replaces Dr. Weir as Secretary, makes it a practice to separate entries with a horizontal line. It is noted here, but I omit it in subsequent pages. Mowat also regularly includes marginal glosses.”

Geep added a note to 109 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “With the entry of February 24, 1863, Principal Leitch co-signs the minutes, presumably well after the fact, as minutes from later in the year are co-signed by William Snodgrass, Secretary to the Board of Trustees, with the notation that Dr. Leitch...”

Geep added a note to 104 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “Again, the right hand edge was cut off in the photocopy, presumably a byproduct of the binding of the original volume. Taken together with the faintness of the copy as well, it would be necessary to redo the photocopying of many of these left-hand...”
Geep added a note to 92 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “I hesitate to mark this page as in need of review, as it seems as though the problems can only be addressed by an in-person examination of the original document. This is especially indicated by the apparent cutting-off of the right-hand edge of th...”
Geep added a note to 72 in Queen's University Senate Minute Book (Volume 2) 1855-1877, saying “Lines 11-28 of transcription: the names are givin last name first, contrary to normal practice.
