Notes: "Thomas Moore" is a pseudonym. The actual calculator was John Nathan Hutchins, the author of Hutchin's [sic] improved, being an almanack ... for 1772, also published by Gaine. The astrological aspects and weather predictions in the third column on the calendar pages duplicate those in Hutchin's improved, as do the moon calculations transposed into this column. The calculations for sunrise have been adjusted. The eclipse predictions are a slightly abbreviated version, the last sentence containing an error which is corrected on p. [55] of the almanac.
