Notes:

Presumably the New Haven edition attacked as a counterfeit by Ames in an advertisement in the Boston gazette, Jan. 14, 1760: "... omitting the preface, ephemeris, verses, &c. also what is of service, interest tables, value of coin, the several roads and stages; and further to make me appear still more contemptible omitted all the week days in the whole year, and above 50 days in the months, and fixed in some places the wrong dominical letter: surely such a conduct is to the last degree, base!"
