[Warren] : Printed at Warren (R.I.) by Nathaniel Phillips. Great encouragement given to wholesale purchasers, [1797]
Notes:
Calculated by Nathan Daboll. The eclipse predictions are almost identical with those in his New England almanac and gentlemen and ladies' diary for 1798 (New London). The moon calculations, and most of the astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages, duplicate those in Daboll. The calculations for the sun and tides vary, reflecting the difference in meridian between the two almanacs.
