72 Proceedings of the liujjdl Iri^h Acuitcmij. 



The C'romwellian party obtained possession of Cork about the month of 

 October, 1649. Items 15 to 29 represent the output of the Cork presses under 

 their rule. The earlier items of this period arc also without a printer's name. 

 In fact, the only one in this group of items that has a name at all is No. 29, 

 the printer being " William Smith." Undoubtedly items 27 and 28 would 

 appear to have been printed at the same press when one compares the type, 

 etc., of the three items. 



Smith also is given as the printer of items 30, 31, and 34, and items 32 

 and 39 bear a strong resemblance to his printing, and his name appears on 

 the imprint of item 36. 



It is unnecessary perhaps to deal further with the list, which explains 

 itself and is published merely with the view that the information contained 

 therein may be on record. 



Apart from the political and religious items, there are none of special 

 interest, except No. 36.
