Some general tips:

The ‘Golden Rule’: Please transcribe exactly what is written in the letters (including any exact spelling, capitalization and punctuation). Try to replicate the layout, too (starting a new line when the letter writer does so).
Handwriting can be difficult to read. If something is illegible you can simply insert ‘[illeg]’. If you think you know what something says, but are not entirely sure (for example, if you think the word may be ‘butter’), you can insert ‘[?butter]’. Anything in square brackets is your comment (and not in the original).
Most letters are more than one page. If you wish to transcribe the whole letter, that’s terrific. But you can also choose to transcribe just one page if you prefer.
Your transcription will not go live immediately but will be quickly reviewed before being published on this page.
Use our ‘Guidance on Transcription’ if you are unsure how to record something.

Note: This letter has already been transcribed 1 time (some may be pending approval, so not yet visible). Please review these existing transcriptions first to prevent duplicating transcriptions.
