This edition is know to exist in at least 2 states: in state 1 p. 27, line 23 reads "*As 2 Tim.4;2.the Greek, ton log-"; in state 2 spacing has been changed, letters obliterated by hand and others added by hand-stamp, so that line reads "*As II Tim* ; the Greek ton log-" with the second asterisk referring to hand-stamped "*4;2" at foot of page.

Third state of the t.-p.: the first 3 lines of the title are printed with only 1mm. of space between the lines, as in pts. 3 & 4; the 4th word of the title is originally printed "first" and the spacing adjusted; the list of the author's other works includes "Hope"; on verso of t.-p., the copyright notice has no comma after "Congress" and the date "1858" is clearly printed. This t.-p. was probably printed in 1861; see second state.
