Seeing that Wlliam's post had an AI element in it, I thought I'd see if the Familysearch AI could do a better job:
After a few attempts, varying the search terms (took about 5 minutes) I located the document in question (+ a positive mark for the FS AI)
In the accompanying transcription, it was about 95% accurate in what it compiled, which isn't too bad, you can see for your selves here:
