-
- The calculations and wording of the eclipse predictions (p. 3 and 12), the accompanying illustration, and the calculations on the calendar pages, are identical with those in Bickerstaff's Boston almanack for 1768 (Boston: Mein & Fleeming) except that for some months those in the two "High water" columns are transposed. Bickerstaff's was apparently calculated by Benjamin West. Cf. Nichols, C.F.
