Notes:

Calculated by Nathan Daboll. The eclipse predictions are identical with those in his New England almanack and gentlemen & ladies' diary for 1796 (New London). The moon calculations, and the astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages, duplicate those in Daboll. Part of the calculations in the notes, and all those for the sun and tides, vary because of the difference in the meridian between the two almanacs.
