Patty, We'll all be forever grateful for your generosity in offering to transcribe! I would be interested in page 4, column 2, item 4: I wish to rent my plantation - Nicholas Davis. My Davis brick wall is in Lauderdale County at right about that time period! If any of that article appears to be translate-able, it would be a boon to my research.
