Uncontrolled note

Printed in 1795 as p. 2 has "First: of the winter quarter, 1795. Which begins Monday, 21st December, 1795, ...". Pagination uncertain: the almanack, if "moved" to after p. 16, is consecutively paginated to reach the next printed page no (p. 29). However, the present unpaginated sheet after p. 16 - what is its original position? At present it is glued to p. 29 - so if almanac is in wrong position pagination would have been: 16,[14],29-32,[12]p. Verify pagination if another copy ever turns up
