General noteHutchins died in 1782, and the calculator of the present almanac is Andrew Beers. The astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages (with a few omissions), and the calculations for the rising and setting of the moon, are identical with those in his Beers' almanac for 1800, published at Hartford. The other calculations vary to a degree reflecting the difference in meridian between Hartford and New York. An advertisement for Beers's surveying business appears on p. [34].
