- Notes
- Margin shows "970" struck through (chaplain numbering anomaly). Indian Christian — Babre G. [?] Priest. Later correction: officiant re-read "Babre G." -> "Balraj" (Priest). Cross-checked against two independent page images (p-083 and p-084) with the same flourished blue-ink signature — it's one continuous name ending in a looped descender, not a two-part "Babre" + "G."; "Balraj" is a real Indian first name and fits the letterforms (tall B ascender, a-l-r-a humps, j-loop tail) far better than the prior split reading.
