Note

Typographically identical with the issue (Evans 1548) with imprint: Printed by Will. Bradford in New-York, 1713. "Daniel Leeds' almanacs had been printed annually by William Bradford at Philadelphia or New York from 1689 to 1713. On some of the 1713 edition the imprint was omitted and the name of the bookseller was put in its place. Pembrook was perhaps one of the common class of itinerant booksellers who moved about from town to town at that time. At any rate I have not found his name in any contemporary list of Newport inhabitants." --Chapin, H.M. "Check list of Rhode Island almanacs, 1643-1850." Proc. Amer. Antiq. Soc., n.s., v. 25 (1915): 30.
