Note 8 — Chapter I · INTRODUCTION.

Catalogue of the Library of Congress in the Capitol of the United States of America: Washington, 1840. 8vo. The third entry in the Index is Abdy, and the reference "xxix. 215. i.;" xxix. applies to the class, which is Geography; the title is to be found in section v., America; so that actually seventy pages of the catalogue have to be glanced through before the work of Abdy can be found.
