THE PROTESTANT ALMANACK.
FOIL 1841.

Wilt be published on the sth of NOVEMBER, in a

Book and Sheet.

PRICE THREE .PENCE EACH.
CONTAINING a Record of the most important His-
torical events, relative to the origin and process of
Papal usurpation, persecution, idolatry and corruption, from
its rise to the present time, together with a most accurate
Tide-table for London and Liverpool, also much useful and
instructive information of the utmost value to Protestants
of every denomination, compiled by JOSEPH CRISP, of
Liverpool.

The great encouragement given to the publication of the
" Protestant Almanack for 1840," although brought out
under every disadvantage, has determined the compiler to
spare no trouble or expense in the design and arrangement of
his Almanack for 1841. The Sheet Almanack will contain
beautifully executed Wood Engravings of
THE MARTYRDOM OF ARCHBISHOP CRANMER,
HEAD OF BISHOP RIDLEY,
MASSACRE OF ST. BARTHOLEMEW,
HEAD OF BISHOP LATIMER,
SIEGE OF DERRY,
DERRY TESTIMONIAL, &C. &C.
As nothing but a most extensive sale can cover the heavy
outlay upon so cheap a work, the compiler sincerely trusts
that every good friend of the cause will use his endeavours to
extend its circulation.
