With:	With: Mathematical tables: : difference of latitude and departure; logarithms, from 1 to 10,000; and artificial sines, tangents, and secants. -- Stereotype edition, carefully revised and corrected. -- Philadelphia: : Published by Kimber and Sharpless .... : Stereotyped by J. Howe, New-York. Collation: [A]⁴ B-T⁴ [$1 signed]; 76 leaves, pp. [1] 2-152 + plates 1-8, folded. Issued together; see p. 7, "Advertisement to the fourth edition" (published in 1825): "The mathematical tables have been stereotyped after carefully revising them and comparing them with the most correct European editions." The tables were printed separately: in some copies of this edition of Gummere the title page of the tables is dated 1829; in others, presumably from a later printing, it is undated.
