The abbreviation of chacun is confirmed here:

ch’un - chun’   cha(s)cun
ch’une - chune’   cha(s)cune

I'm suitably impressed by you both joger and Zefiro!

Brilliant, Zefiro,

Thank you so much for seeing the correct spelling of that word.  I must confess, I had my doubts about the first letter being a 't' but not being able to see that there was a line above the letter indicating an abbreviated word, the word 'chune'  made no sense to me.  I am so glad that that area of the document now makes perfect sense.

Thank you, again, for your contributions, to this post.
