When I get home, I can tell you exactly how many missing pages there are. Off the top of my head, I believe that the entire book originally had 95 total leaves (190 pages) in it before Booth removed some.

Not only are some pages removed, but others have been partially ripped as well. The true number is higher than what is usually written about.

Also, Laurie, I completely agree with you that M__ C__ probably stands for Machodoc Creek. That's so cool that he put that in this.

For some reason, the number 56 sticks in my head as the number of missing pages.
