[list-cumbria] Cumberland Pacquet - 8

[petra.mitchinson at doctors.org.uk]

Hi Nev,

So do you work from an image of the original paper (or the paper 
itself), or from a transcription?

If the latter, you can't really change the transcription to what you 
think it should be, but you could put one of your remarks in red letters 
in brackets behind it.
