Item #339396

Everett's Eulogy and Harris's Discourse each have separate title pages, with imprint: Charlestown: Printed by Samuel Etheridge. M,DCCC. and were also issued separately (Evans 37387 and 37581 respectively). Washington's Address (Evans 38985) is also listed separately in Evans, but was evidently not so issued. The first four works bound here often found together, although the fifth part evidently a separate imprint.
