| Item Description: | The latest information included is for September 1791. An abridgement of the 70 pages Philadelphia edition (Evans 26583) printed by Dobson in September 1772. In the present issue, the appendix relating to the Baptist churces of Great Britain (pages 58-66) has been omitted, and page 57 has been reset. As is the case with the 70 pages issue, the first 16 pages are the same sheets as appear in the original [Richmond, April 1792] edition (Evans 26580), and were probably printed in 1791. Evans, however, postulates that the first 16 pages were printed by Dobson in September 1792. He accounts for their presence in copies of the [Richmond] edition of 60 pages by suggesting that Asplund substituted the corrected Philadelphia sheets for the unsatisfactory sheets of the earlier edition. Cf. the prefaces to the 1794 and 1796 editions, with title: The universal register of the Baptist denomination ... "Remarks [i.e, errata and additions]."--pages 69-70. Electronic resource. |
