Info

The books that I have traced, indicated by the word “found” on List 1, and given only by author and title on List 2, show the name E. Westerlo, handwritten on the title page. Westerlo did not write notes in any of his books. Why he drew up the 1771 list is unknown. In view of the prices he included for each book, and the transactions mentioned, “sold,” “loaned,” but also “lost,” it must have been simply to keep track of his books but it is clear he revisited the list from time to time: he sold some books to Dominee (Nicholas) Lansing (1748-1835), whom he trained for the ministry during the 1770s, and who was not licensed to preach until 1780. Westerlo arranged the books by size: folio, quarto, octavo, duodecimo. For each he estimated its value, but the accuracy of the prices cannot be ascertained. The information is not relevant for this study, and it has not been transcribed here. Within each size there does not seem to be any order, and the numbering in the list was not flawless. For the sake of today’s reader, I have put all the books in alphabetical order by author, including an indication of each book’s size. As much as possible I have added information about each book and its author(s), with the caveat that the particular edition of each book could not be ascertained if Westerlo’s copy has not been traced. 1.

Leiden: Hendrik Teeringh. 1707. 667 The letters O, F, Q and D refer to the size [octavo, folio, quarto, and duodecimo, respectively], which was Westerlo’s means of cataloguing his books. The number indicates the number Westerlo used to put these titles in order. The “!” is reserved for book numbers that were (incorrectly) added later. The list concludes with an indication of which numbers Westerlo skipped. The word “found” serves to identify the books that have been found thusfar in libraries today. 240
