That this pamphlet was printed in Cambridge is doubtful; it was probably printed in London between the years 1662 and 1667 when Oxenbridge was living in Surinam. cf. A third supplementary list of early American imprints, by S.A. Green, 1908, p. 8-19: The Oxenbridges, by W.D. Cooper, 1860, p. 15; Magnalia, by Cotton Mather, 1702, book III, p. 221: also a letter, dated Nov. 6, 1939, in L.C. Catalogue division, from Mr. Allyn R.
