Notes:
The calculator was Joshua Sharp. The calendar pages and eclipse predictions are an abbreviated version of those in the Citizen's and farmer's almanac for 1802, calculated by Sharp and printed by M'Culloch. A column has been added for the moon's age. A few of the calculations vary, in most or all cases through printer's error. On the eclipse page, by this agency, the time of the solar eclipse on March 4th has been reversed from 2 minutes past 12 (0.02) to "2h.0m."
The issue for 1803 is entitled A Pocket almanac.
