In the middle of the book there are several blank pages (of two kinds of paper), intended to make notes. More than one owner has left his or her mark by making use of these pages. Most entries are in Dutch, but there are also entries in French by Agathe (1817). Some entries seem to be made by a child as it concerns the date of his daddy's birthday and a visit from the school teacher. The entries date from 1817 to 1839. An endearing example in Dutch (1817, Den Haag):
‘Schoon ik uw dierbaar bijzijn mis (Although I miss your presence)
Toch zweeft ge atloos in mijn gedachten (Still you're always in my thoughts)
Uw hart betoovrend beeltenis’ (Your enchanting image)
