Carter No.: 351

Handlist description: Faldstool

Card/Transcription No.: 351-7


The strengthening framework, warped by infrequent saturations
of humidity that the tomb had suffered, no longer serves its
purpose, for its tenons hardly meet their morticed sockets. In
point of fact, this relic of authority offered more than one
problem in the matter of reparation sufficient even for
transport.
