Anonymous. "The dedications are signed M. P. (Mary Pelham or Maryland Point, the pseudonyms used by Dorothy Kilner)" -- Osborne

Osborne gives an approximate date of 1787; however, the imprint suggests a later date. John Marshall was at Queen-Street from 1789. Initially as "John Marshall and Co." until Nov. 1789 when the partnership was dissolved. Thereafter as "John Marshall". See Stoker, D. "John Marshall, John Evans, and the Cheap Repository tracts, 1793-1800", PBSA 107:1 (2013), 81-118
