"Shipped and Received???" "16100" refers to the weight of the shipment, on which the bill was based. "N. L Buffalo" has me buffaloed (sorry) but I suspect that it's telling the "Agt" that the load came to whereever its been delivered from the NYC&StL via Buffalo. This is the DL&W billing the NYC&StL for it's share of the billing to the shipper.
