Title from caption.

Imprint from colophon.

First three issues (no.171-173) appeared on Thursday, adopting the numbering system of Dillingham's Moderate intelligencer and falsely claiming to be a retitling of that newsbook; subsequent issues apppeared on Tuesday. Cf. Williams.

Pagination and signatures of first three issues are identical to those of Dillingham's Moderate intelligencer; pagination and signatures begin again with no.1 and are continuous thereafter.

No.171 (22-29 June 1648) was the first issue published; no.1 (11-18 Jul. 1648) constitutes issue no.4.
