  Imprint represents only the first leaf in the standard formatting of a House journal; Sabin suggests that Purdie did not produce a full journal for this session, given the availability of its documentary record (1775.017) and the ensuing crush of press work from the Convention of July 1775, which was convened three weeks after this Assembly session adjourned.
