Notes:

"Richard Moore" is a pseudonym. The actual calculator was John Nathan Hutchins, the author of Hutchin's [sic] improved, being an almanack .. for 1766, also published by Gaine. The third column on the calendar pages, including astrological aspects and weather predictions, duplicates that in Hutchin's improved almost entirely. The calculations for sunrise are identical, and the eclipse predictions are an abbreviated version.
