Transcriber's Notes: This January edition of the Nursery had a table of contents for the first six issues of the year. This table was divided to cover each specific issue and the words "No. 1." were added to the title page. Obvious punctuation errors repaired. In the Premiums section, page 10, the last entries on both sets of bookmarks are missing their price. The remaining corrections made are indicated by dotted lines under the corrections. Scroll the mouse over the word and the original text will appear. |
