Published: 1769
Place of publication: Boston

Number of pages: 24
Notes: This is the only known Boston edition of Ames for 1770, and presumably the one advertised in the Boston evening post (T. & J. Fleet), Dec. 4, 1769, and in the Massachusetts gazette and Boston news-letter (R. Draper), Dec. 14, as "to be sold by R. Draper, T. & J. Fleet, and Edes & Gill." Evans takes the printer to be William McAlpine, evidently through extrapolation from the McAlpine editions of other years. Drake, entry 3184, mistakenly lists a McAlpine issue as being held by the American Antiquarian Society.
