Note:  On this page of the original census, all records through line 26 were in a darker pen (or pencil) than those beginning with line 28.  The enumeration dates at the top of the page are 4th and 5th of June 1880.  Thus, we are led to believe that the change in handwriting marks the change in dates. 

All records through line 26: there is a slash mark in columns 16-19 with a horizontal line or two through them.  I assume that the census taker mistakenly marked these columns as he asked the questions and later realized that they should not have been marked.
The 2 is clear.  The second digit could 4, 1, or 0.  Best guess for the age is 21.
This is fairly clear handwriting but it could possibly be Aevous or a misspelled version of Anxious.
4  There is a small mark - maybe a half slash in this column.  Not sure if it means anything or if it is just a mark.
