No sooner was the Edition of the _Wonders_ printed in Boston, than Copies were sent to London and reprinted there with all Dispatch, as will be seen by the "_Imprimatur_" in the Front of the Work. Mr. Deodat Lawson's "_Brief and True Narrative_" of the same Affair was printed in Boston in 1692, by Benj. Harris, and the next Year in London by John Dunton, in Connection with Dr. Increase Mather's "_Further Account of the Tryals of the New England Witches_." A second (in Fact, it was the third) Edition of Mr. Lawson's Work was issued in London in 1704, which, though he calls it a _second Edition_ is quite a different Book from the first Edition. In the first he inserted the Names of the Parties, while in the last, Dashes stand in their Stead. It has two Dedications: one "To the Right Worshipful and truly Honourable, Sir Henry Ashhurst, Barrᵗ. and to His Truly Honourable and Religious Consort, Lady Diana Ashhurst, Barrᵗ:" signed Deodat Lawson. The other is "To the Worshipful and Worthily Honoured _Bartholomew Gidney_, _John Hathorne_, and _Jonathan Corwin_, Esqrs. Together with the Reverend _Mr. John Higginson_, Pastor, and Mr. _Nicholas Noyes_ Teacher of the Church of Christ at Salem." Signed Deodat Lavson. It should be mentioned also that Dr. I. Mather's "_Further Account_," &c., contains Nothing beyond a Reprint of Lawson's Book, (first Edition) except a "_Letter_" containing "_A further Account of the Tryals of the New England Witches_," sent "_to a Gentleman in London_." This Letter was added at the End of the "_Further Account_." It was probably written by Mr. Mather to John Dunton, his Friend and Publisher, and occupies about three additional Pages. In this Reprint of the _Wonders_ I have followed the second Edition, presuming that to be the most accurate, as the Copy from which it was printed was doubtless furnished by the Author. Very few Copies of the original Edition are known to be in Existence. I have never owned one, and am indebted to my Friend, GEORGE BRINLEY, Esq., for the Use of his (rather imperfect) Copy. While this Preface was in the Hands of the Printer, my Publisher, Mr. WOODWARD, has had the rare Fortune to obtain a very good one.
