On p. 1 of 172, there appear to be fragments of two additional pages on top of the main page. I have marked the different pages with two forward slashes (//) to indicate where the overlay occurs. Additionally, the text contains latitude and longitude with degrees and minutes over the numerals, which I indicated with an o (for degree) or m (for minute) in brackets between the two numbers.
