We're not talking about Parkinson's here. There's no hint of tremor or small writing.
It's someone in a hurry, doing a boring task, having to add numbers to every-so-many pages.
It's just a messy 9. The stroke order of 9 and the stroke order of the "n" on folio 116 are different. So is the shape.
You are TRYING to turn it into an "n" based on your presumption that you want it to be "n". It's not. It's just an ordinary ordinal number, like all the others, but a bit messy. Have you never written a messy letter? It's still readable as "9".
