4 These dates remain in the revision of his article by G. W. Williams (1970); in 1996 it was replaced with an article by P. G. and D. P. Fowler, who cite only the second edition and date it 1922.

6 We thank Mr Maw for this information and his assistant Jenny McMorris for finding the publication-date of the second edition.

7 In England, till long after the Second World War, both law and custom made 1 January a normal working day.
