  • General note

    The manuscript appears to be in the hand-writing of a ship's writer and to record a verbal statement made by Adams while the document was being written. It begins in the third person and then adopts the first person where Adams is mentioned but all of it has been revised and converted into the third person, with corrections of certain words.
  • Signatures / Inscriptions

    The signature is in different handwriting which may be Adam's own.
