Handwritten index of Royalty and Nobility featured in the scrapbook, which takes up a small portion of the page. It is crowded with printed decorative borders, Hineโ€™s own annotations about the scrapbookโ€™s contents, and some decorative sketches including a plant in a pot labelled โ€˜VRโ€™. The page is crowded except for a small space that has some lists of royalty in pencil that was probably intended to be inked in at a later date.
