General noteThe sermon and oration each have separate title page and pagination. Gatherings are signed continuously. Everett's oration was also issued separately (32 p., a half-title having been added and the pages renumbered).
General noteMuch bibliographical confusion has arisen from this publication. Shaw & Shoemaker entry 4174 is apparently a ghost, calling for a 32 page 1803 printing of Everett's oration. Shaw & Shoemaker entry 5828, based upon an imperfect copy at the American Antiquarian Society, calls for an 18 p. edition of Beedé's sermon only. Shaw & Shoemaker entry 6268 records the separate 32 p. issue of Everett's oration. Shaw & Shoemaker make no entry describing the two works issued together.
General noteWalgren entry 796 describes the sermon and oration as issued together. The description is based on the title page to Beedé's sermon rather than on the collective title page, which Walgren characterizes as a half-title. Walgren entry 803 describes Everett's oration as issued with Beedé's sermon, but mistakenly calls for the half-title found in the separate issue only.
