First, the Authors' Surnames are carried on Alphabetically, and the places of their Birth or Residence as far as known.

Then the Titles of the Books, and the number of editions printed, as near as can be ascertained, in chronological order; then the size and date and number of sheets; and, lastly, the time and place of the death of deceased Authors, if known.

Some are entered twice, for easier reference, as some that have two Authors under both their names; and some not only under the Authors' names, but also under the title of King, Parliament, Sufferings, and Testimonies concerning Friends deceased, because they fall properly under those heads.

And such as have no Authors' names may be found under Anonymous, or Nameless, Friends, Quakers, &c., &c.

Periodical Publications may be found under that head.

At the end of those Pieces by Authors whose works have been collected, the page is given where they may be found; where that is omitted, it must be understood that such Tract or Piece is not in their collected works.
