"One hundred and fifty copies printed." "Club copy. No. 3."

Edited by John Dawson Gilmary Shea.

The name "Chevalier de Goussencourt," under which the first journal was issued, appears to be a pseudonym. cf. Pref.

The second journal was written "by a friendly hand, if not his [de Grasse's] own." cf. p. 21.
