In the same almost unreadable handwriting, but a different pen, the enumerator came back and wrote over and/or above the orginal occupation; both are hard to read.  I've shown the added occupations [in brackets].  "B.G." stands for "below ground."  "CBelow" is in contrast to "CAbove" and "CHewer," with the "C" standing for "coal."  For definitions of these occupations, see:  hewer and haulier.
