Note generali

"... [P]p. 97-104, the gap being the result of dividing the manuscript between two printers, I.D. and I.H., in order to hasten the work."--Sabin, J. Bibliotheca Americana, no. 82824. Also, for a statement of the probable cause of the hiatus in the paging (p. 97-104) see Edward Arber's edition of Smith's "Works"(1884), p. 409.
