Caption title

Ascribed to the press of Franklin and Hall by Evans. Miller rejects the ascription, noting that it "... was evidently widely reprinted in England and sent to the American colonies in large numbers."

In the present edition, pages 2-4 are numbered, and the first line of text reads "Pursuant to the directions of the last Yearly Meeting,"

"A brief account of the origin of the names of some months of the year, and of all the days of the week, now customarily and commonly used."--p. 3-4; "From the Meeting for Sufferings in London, the sixth day of the seventh month, 1751."
