(_In a not inconsiderable number of cases a difference of_ one _yearwill be found, from the dates as given in some reference books. This,which renews the elder trouble of "Old" and "New" Style, arises,probably, if not certainly, from the fact of the book having appearedlate in autumn or early in spring, with a title-page, anticipatory orretrospective, as the case may be. The same thing occurs, of course,with English books; but not, I think, so often. French books, moreover,unless I am mistaken, not infrequently appear with_ no _date ontitle-page._)
