The last character "町" seems out of context and is likely an OCR error or a character that was not properly recognized. It has been left as is, assuming it might be a part of the original scan. However, if it's not part of the original text, it should be removed. Since the rule is to not add or alter content significantly, I've kept the corrections to spelling and formatting.
