- "Thomas Moore" is a pseudonym. The actual calculator was John Nathan Hutchins, the author of Hutchin's [sic] improved, being an almanack ... for 1774, also published by Gaine. The astrological aspects, weather predictions, and calculations of the day's length in the third column practically duplicate those in Hutchin's improved, as do the moon calculations transposed into this column. The calculations for sunrise have been adjusted. The wording of the eclipse predictions is identical.
