But the apparent calculator is Nathan Daboll. The calculations for the sun and moon, and the majority of the astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages (with some slight variations of minutes in the times given in them), correspond to those in The New England almanack and gentlemen and ladies diary for 1788 (New London), calculated by Daboll under the pseudonym of Edmund Freebetter.
