Reader’s notes
p. 55. No column headings are printed on this crop, so header_rows is empty. The table has three columns: the stub and two numeric columns — an inner (indented) column holding the component figures and an outer right-hand column holding the summary figures; each value is placed under the column it is printed in, judged from its horizontal position. Double rules (not transcribed as rows) separate the sections: after "Suits commenced", after "Pending" (district courts), and after "Stays pending appeal granted". The raised footnote marker on "Supreme Court of the United States:" and on the third footnote line is blurred in the scan and could be read as 8, but the 1-2-3 sequence and the footnote order make 3 the intended digit; transcribed as 3. The dashes in footnotes 1 and 2 ("56-7-8", "58-9") are printed as short dashes and transcribed as hyphens. The three component figures under "Applications for temporary injunctions defeated" (46, 5, 8) sum to 59, matching the printed total; the circuit-court components (14, 0, 1, 0, 3, 24) sum to 42, matching "Appeals perfected". Running body text below the footnotes ("It will be noted that the overwhelming weight of authority sustains ...") is page prose cut off by the crop and is not part of the table.
