I am transcribing old wills and trying to maintain the style. This particular set has three different characters for the word "and" and two of them I managed to make. The third one looks like the number "4" but rotated counter-clockwise 90 degrees. Can I create such a symbol please? I am using Word 2000. Thank you.
