Hogan & Thompson published an ed. as late as 1850; 163 p., clean and unmarked except for bookseller's notation on front end page "early [illegible] imprint engravings;" pape strong but quite foxed; leather spine with gilt striations is abraded and blue paper strpped off front board; back board also partially stripped of paper, but catalogue of Claremont's other educational books is present.
