Notes:
Erroneously attributed by Evans to David Rittenhouse. Except for the sun columns, the calculations and astronomical notes on the calendar pages, as well as the eclipse predictions, bear no resemblance to those in Father Abraham's almanac for 1778 (Philadelphia), whose title page names Rittenhouse as its calculator.
