I do Certify, that there are
one hundred and twenty (120) Pages of Schedule one (1) of Census enumeration of
the County of Craighead Arkansas, and that the same has been truly made
according to the tenor of my oath of office, the time allowed and the late day
upon which blanks and instructions were received and that I have used unusual
exertion and industry to complete the work by the time specified, but have been
wholly unable to do so, as I possessed no blanks of Schedule (3) for one month
of that time which was allowed for doing the work, and was necessarily compelled
to form temporary ones in order that the work might progress which have
transcribed since the regular blanks were received, thereby consuming much time
that should have been otherwise employed.
