I hope that's not a captcha. If it were, I wonder how much extra it would cost at decaptcher :D

thanks holograph, makes sense now since "t" in old style cyrillic cursive looks kind of like "m"

I am curious what the extra character at the end is, I notice it at the end of many words, is it like modern cyrillic "ь" or is there a different purpose for it?

I think I figured it out, that is the same as "Ъ ъ" at the end for hard sound

thanks again

I guess document is pretty old, 19 century al least...

yeah in the old days they used to add "ъ" at the end of lots words or maybe it was cross between ь & ъ

t always been m kinda looking handwritten and in old days they use to add dash over t (m) and below "sh" ш when written.
