The above volume of tracts from the Jefferson collection was omitted from the Library of Congress catalogues subsequent to that of 1815. The next following volume, now labelled Political Pamphlets, Vol. 106, contains tracts printed in 1808, and was probably at one time bound with the preceding volume. It is not separately listed in the 1815 Catalogue and is ascribed to the Jefferson collection in all the later catalogues. It has no specific marks of its Jefferson provenance.
