Notes: The "case" refers to the events surrounding the publication of a volume of sermons by John Jeffery. According to Nicol (in his Anecdotes), after delays in publication, John Payne took it upon himself to become Editor. He then made the acquaintance of the Rev. Samuel Salter, who owned the manuscript, and the two undertook the final publication. According to Nicol, these events "occasioned the publication of the above extraoordinary Case, of which only a small number was printed, with blanks for every name which could possibly give a stranger the least idea of the parties".

The last 11 pages (quires L and M) have caption title "Appendix".
