Scope and Contents

Words and phrases from a French dictionary have been altered in the form of comments, underlines, cancellations, and removal by perforations. Each of two headers of the printed columns of the pages has been retitled to more closely connote the new theme achieved by Racin's alterations. At the bottom of the columns, a printed phrase, denoted by a graphite mark in the vertical margin, has been rewritten to express a unifying theme. Marks and letters in the margins reflect arcane record keeping. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
