Notes A new edition, embellished with engravings;
Having an alternate engraved title page reading "Friendship in death, in twenty letters from the dead to the living. To which are added letters moral & Entertaining, in prose & verse. By Mrs. Elizabeth Rowe. To which are also added devout exercises of the heart and memoirs of the author." and an engraving of Mrs. Rowe before that;
Pagination is continuous throughout;
Very similar to WPHP 13487 except, in this edition, contents come after the "Life of Mrs. Rowe" and there is one blank page between both the engraving of Mrs. Rowe and the alternate title page and the alternate title page the main title page. It seems that this edition was printed properly and WPHP 13487 was a misprint.;
