Notes
Imprint states: " Martinsburgh, Virginia: Re-printed by J. Alburtis, for John R. Crawford., May, 1811." the pamphlet was first published in Trenton (NJ) earlier in the year 1811. Two other editions of the tract were apparently published in Virginia in 1811, one carrying a fictitious, mocking imprint (1811.097) and one lacking any imprint (1811.096). Crawford was a Frederick County farmer interested in evangelical preaching with apocalyptic overtones, as evinced by the two imprints he published: this title through Alburtis in 1811, and another in 1813 from the Winchester press of Jonathon Foster (1813.101).
