Notes
"J. Grout, Jr. ... 199 Main Street, Worcester"--publisher's advertisement on p. [4] of wrapper. Jonathan Grout published at 199 Main Street, Worcester, from 1845 to 1846.
Variant issues noted based on wood engraving on p. 24 and spelling on p. 17. This copy has a wood engraving of a tree with a tent and two people under it on p. 24 and the correct fable title "The lark and her young ones" on p. 17. Condition of wood blocks seems to indicate this is an earlier edition than PML 80061.
Dates in this record (revised from between 1835-1850) based on information in MAAR record (MAAR9009202604B).
