This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the
most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document
have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material
submitted.
"l.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document
photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing
page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages.
This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating
adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity.
3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo
graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning"
the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of
a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small
overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the
first row and continuing on until complete.
5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases we have
filmed the best available copy.
