When determining the date isn't obvious from Mitford's own hand, and when you had to do some research to determine or make an educated guess about the date, you need to indicate that here in an editorial note like this:

So when Mitford writes over two sheets of paper on the front and back of each, we've photographed four surfaces. When she writes on one sheet front and back, we've photographed two surfaces. Work closely with the photos of your letter to determine the number of sheets and separate surfaces, and describe how they are folded: in thirds? There is likely to be more than one photo of the same surface.--> </p>

Use the <handNote> elements to describe the role of each hand in this manuscript. If the hand is, say, Mitford's mother's and is writing a page of the letter, you indicate when that happens in the body of the letter using the <handShift> element. The @corresp attributes on <handNote> point to xml:ids stored (or to be stored) in our Site Index.-->

<handNote corresp="#rc" medium="red_crayon"> Red crayon or thick red pencil. Probably a different hand from Mitford's that marks many of her letters, sometimes drawing diagonal lines across pages, and sometimes writing words overtop and perpendicularly across Mitford's writing. <!-- Don't change the preceding two sentences if this letter has red crayon. In the *following* sentence, describe red crayoning on this letter. For example: A red line is drawn from top left to bottom right of each of the first three leaves.

<p>Mitford’s spelling and punctuation are retained, except where a word is split at the end of a line and the beginning of the next in the manuscript. Where Mitford’s spelling and hyphenation of words deviates from the standard, in order to facilitate searching we are using the TEI elements “choice," “sic," and “reg" to encode both Mitford’s spelling and the regular international standard of Oxford English spelling, following the first listed spelling in the Oxford English Dictionary. The long s and ligatured forms are not encoded.</p>

<closer>
<!--The first <closer> includes Mitford's signature, but does NOT include the postscript. (Later, we'll use <closer> again to hold Mitford's address on her address leaf if it's present.)

<closer>
Yours<lb/>

Postscripts do NOT go inside closer tags. Adjust to take into account the order in your letter. Sometimes the signature is on page three, the address on page four, then the postscript follows back on the top of page one, for example.-->
<closer><!--Use the <closer> element again to hold Address Leaf information, indicating where Mitford directed her letter.-->
<address> <!--Include any text written on the address leaf; use a separate "addrLine" for each line and indicate line breaks. Closer tags must also enclose the address section. NOTE AGAIN: If Mitford has a postscript, that postcript must *not* be enclosed in the closer tags, even when they are written after the signature and before the address. It's a TEI rule (sigh). -->
<addrLine><!--Text of a line on the address leaf, with context coding and superscripts indicated. For example: To T. N. Talfourd--></addrLine>
<addrLine><!--Text of a line on the address leaf, with context coding and superscripts indicated. For example: No. 1 Pump Court--></addrLine>
<addrLine><!--Text of a line on the address leaf, with context coding and superscripts indicated. For example: Temple--></addrLine>
<!--Some address leaves may have a name and city in the bottom left; this indicates the person who franked the letter, usually a Member of Parliament whom Mitford knows.
