• variant_number: Staunton 04-02
• notes: Only number of this variant known is that for September 18, 1807 (III:19); change in title and adoption of a pseudonymous proprietor came sometime after March 14, 1807 issue; from that number, the start date of 3rd volume is calculated as being May 15, 1807, some twenty weeks after such a volume would have started as part of an uninterrupted run, suggesting a suspension of publication during that period. Alterations to this paper appear tied to financial issues, as size of page-sheet was reduced from 53 cm. (Super Royal) to 33 cm. (Foolscap), so reducing its production costs. Date publication ceased is undetermined, but likely came sometime in late 1807 or early 1808; a rival journal appeared in July 1807, and Lyford started a new paper in May 1808, suggesting that he closed this paper to effect a reorganization of his business affairs before starting the new weekly the next spring.
