Notes
  • The calendar pages are by Abraham Shoemaker. All of the calculations for the moon, and the astronomical and horological notes with some omissions and a few additions, duplicate those in Bailey's Rittenhouse almanac for 1809 (Philadelphia), calculated by Shoemaker. The calculations for the sun are also identical from June to December, but have been adjusted slightly in January-May for the difference in meridian between the two almanacs.
  • The Anatomy is the only illustration.
