ahh well it could be entirely as you say
since my guess that you have 50 more pages than our 190 here
which was based on some comments you made earlier
could be partly or completely cancelled by this news of the
reshuffling of the order of the states
aha
& thus the anticipated treasure troves may lie not in your hands
at all but exclusively in some combination of the still earlier
redactions
bus&ss64
bus&ss30
bus&ss23
bus&ss04
bus&ss00 &
bus&ss1885 respectively
if we should ever be so lucky as to find any of them
but anyway what is the highest numbered page you have there
that single detail should tell us whether there is much to be
gained by continuing this comparison
unless your format varies from our roughly 9 x 11 inch size
etc
