Extract

In his study of The History of John Bull, Dr. Teerink by clearing up the curious dating of the Examiners—he shows that each number appeared on the second Thursday mentioned—has thereby fixed the dates of publication of the five parts of The History (March 6, March 18, April 17, May 9, July 31). He has also determined at least approximately the dates at which the several pamphlets were written, and has thrown light upon the matter in the pamphlets by references to historical events.
