- notes: Title lacks printer credit; typography herein differs markedly from that seen in other recent Masonic imprints (1790.010; 1790.011; 1790.012; 1790.020) produced by Thomas Nicolson, so evidently not issued from his press; attribution to the press of John Dixon Jr. based on his well-known Masonic leadership and the simultaneous decline and death of his father (April 27), long an active Mason, leaving Dixon's family in financial distress, so well deserving of the patronage of the father's Masonic brethren.
