[0] This volume consists primarily of translations of four of Theophilus’ works: ‘Labors Concerning Military Inceptions’; ‘The Collection on Cosmic Inceptions’; ‘Apotelesmatics’ and ‘On Various Inceptions’. An appendix provides 24 pages of translations by Dykes of later Arabic passages by other writers that purport to quote from Theophilus.

[0a] A significantly expanded new edition of the above

[0b] The first English edition, revised from the original Dutch edition of 1911, which was notable for being the approximately joint-second of four known books to have predicted not only the discovery of Pluto but also its name, following that of Fomalhaut (1897), contemporaneous with that of Isabelle Pagan (1911), and before that of Sepharial (“The Science of Foreknowledge”, 1918)

[1] Library records give 1928

[2] COPAC gives 1929

[3] DNB gives 1951. However, this copy is bound in covers bearing advertisements for numbers up to Nr. 40 in the series, suggesting a slightly later date to the binding if not also the printing

[4] i.e. Thilo, q. v. above

[5] DNB gives 1952. The advertising in the back of this copy extends to Nr. 40 in the series, suggesting a slightly later date to the binding if not also the printing

[6] i.e. Thilo, q. v. above

[7] DNB records give 1952 for the original printing. In this copy, the advertising on the inside of the rear cover runs to Nr. 46 in the series, showing it to have been at least bound, and perhaps also printed, a few years later

[8] A complete copy should run to p. 47 according to the DNB. There are some visible stubs at the end of this copy from where some leaves have been removed

[9] After the first edition of 1971

[10] After the first edition of 1967: “reprinted lithographically… from corrected sheets of the first edition”

[11] Former Professor of Modern History at St. John’s College, Oxford

[12] After the first edition of 1971

[13] A facsimile reprint, issued early-mid 2000s, of an unspecified early edition of the work above – apparently not the original edition in view of the added list of illustrations spanning pp. xvii-xix in the source copy for this reprint, lacking from the original edition shown above

[14] Pp. 122-4 have been presented in the wrong order in this copy of the Ballantrae Reprint edition, but no text is missing

[14a] The Lusitania disaster occurred on May 7th shortly after 2 p.m.. It was not possible for post sent from Boston, Mass. to reach Los Angeles the following day in 1915, so the authenticity of Catherine Thompson’s dating of her letter is beyond doubt.

[15] The astrological journal edited by Mrs. Thompson at the turn of the 20th century. This collection holds two issues only, q. v. in the English-language periodicals section

[16] Suspected of being the same Eleanor Herne who contributes one of the other pieces from this collection, q. v. below

[17] The letter is typed on letter-paper headed with the insignia of Oxford Courts Apartments, presumed residences whose address is given as Oxford Courts, 5 Arlington Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts. A further printed note at the top of the paper reads: “Harry A. Gilbert Management”

[17a] The title page includes the original publication details of the printed book thus: Printed for William Cooper at the Pelican in Little Britain, London, 1683

[17b] An actress with a theatre company called the Majestic Players. In this letter, she identifies herself as a client of Mrs. Thompson, and offers some birth data she thinks might be useful in the taught classes of the latter

[17c] A separate stamp to the reverse of the title page is marked April 16, 1915

[17d] The document is unfinished, including calendar entries for January and February and Sun sign portraits for Capricorn and Aquarius, then ending after the calendar entry for March but without the Sun sign portrait for Pisces, which presumably should have come next

[17e] In this instance, the attribution of authorship is pencilled in, but in the author’s own hand

[17f] This cosmologically slanted interpretation of the Book of Genesis unfortunately appears incomplete, the end of the tenth page being part-way through a sentence. Until they are inspected together, it can reasonably be guessed at being possibly an incomplete copy of the essay of the same name shown above

[18] This source according to Mrs. Thompson’s hand-pencilled annotation to the upper margin. The article is brief, and frivolous compared with the other materials in this gathering, but features a low-resolution monochrome photograph of the author

[18a] These are lists of the titles and dates of her past-published articles from December 1913 to February 1916, plus one in October 1912

[19] A draft, with some hand-pencilled corrections and additions by Mrs. Thompson

[20] This document has been completed by the author with hand-inked planetary glyphs in the places left blank for them

[20a] Appears from the pagination to be part of a longer essay on the constellational myths

[20b] Appears from the pagination to be part of a longer essay on the constellational myths

[20c] This article recounts how Mrs. Thompson read a nativity for a student’s cat and correctly predicted its coming death

[21] Mrs. Thompson has hand-dated the lecture to May 1903

[22] With the author’s hand corrections, including correcting her own middle name to Victoria. The content appears at least partly distinctive from the printed lecture of the same name listed above

[22a] This essay relates to events to date in the First World War

[23] A finely hand-inked chart showing the degrees of each sign that are governed by different planets according to the traditional essential dignity of the Terms of the Planets

[24] A draft, peppered with the author’s hand-inked corrections

[25] The wife of President Calvin Coolidge. The chart data is said to have been supplied by the subject’s mother, Mrs. Louisa A Goodhue of 21, Massasoit St., Northampton, Mass.. Mrs. Thompson’s marginal notes give the time of President Coolidge’s onset of fatal illness and death.

[26] The table is not fully labelled, but takes the form of an x-y grid with cells filled with numbers. Down the y axis are rows numbered 1 to 23 inclusive, and across the x-axis, apparent times at 30 minute intervals from 12.0 to 15.30 D. M., in eight columns. The cells are filled with numbers ranging from 0.30 to 14.38, seeming to be times. Two separate columns are labelled “Sun, Venus 59” and “or Mercury 60′”. The cells corresponding to these columns contain values ranging from 2.27 to 57. The hanging hole would suggest that this table was some kind of an aid to chart calculation

[26a] These details are given in the author’s own hand-pencilled annotation to the upper margin of the first leaf. Keith’s Theatre is described in Wikipedia as having been a ‘vaudeville playhouse’ run by B. F. Keith in Boston, Massachusetts, from 1894 to 1928

[27] Describes herself as an R. N. (Registered Nurse) and as ‘Visiting Nurse Ass’n. 35 Elm St.’. It is not immediately apparent whose children are being referred to

[28] This article features the original French text and a German translation of a French article recording a prediction supposedly made to King Wilhelm I of Prussia in 1849 that the German empire would enter its final whole intact year in 1913 before being overwhelmed by its enemies

[29] The leaf features an anonymous poem on the signs of the zodiac

[30] From the pagination, we may guess around March 1931, if a typical length of 16 pages per issue was maintained following that of June 1928, which implicitly ends around p. 1124

[31] The retained extract focuses on predictions Catharine Thompson made concerning Ferdinand, King of Rumania [sic] and Earl Kitchener of Khartoum [sic], in specified Boston newspapers. A handwritten note in what appears to be Mrs. Thompson’s hand further refers to Vol. 1 of the [Yearbook of the] American Academy of Astrologians, p. 62

[32] The year of publication can be inferred partly from the heavy discussion of the war-time events of 1917 and partly from the bottom part of an advertisement above the article for a Boston-based company ‘Est. 1867’ in its ‘Golden Anniversary Year’

[33] A former owner has hand-dated the cutting to Sep. 12, 1914

[34] A former owner, probably Catharine Thompson herself, has added in the date by hand; but it is in any case visible in print on the reverse of this cutting

[35] The publication is styled ‘America’s Authority on Graphology, Scientific Character Analysis and Self Development’

[36] The first plate is labelled ‘Key-Plate. Showing in modern script the principal writings on the front cover page of the Northumberland MSS, as shown in the original old script in the facsimile’, while the second is labelled ‘A Facsimile of the Original Northumberland MSS’

[37] Stated to have been ‘taken from The Sphinx, October 1907′, but it is not clear whether this document was retyped from the magazine at a later date or prepared for it.

[38] According to a pencilled dating in Mrs. Thompson’s hand

[39] According to a pencilled dating in Mrs. Thompson’s hand

[40] The reminiscence concerns a scene with her mother and father

[41] On the reverse side, Mrs. Thompson has written in pencil: ‘to add to “Why I became an astrologer” ‘.

[42] This essay lacks leaves 5-10 inclusive

[43] The first three leaves are ostensibly missing, and the overall title is therefore unclear

[44] The title given is the one that appears at the top of Page 4. It is not clear whether this was the overall title of the piece or not, since the first three leaves are apparently missing. It consists mostly of a slightly annotated poem. Mrs. Thompson has added some of her own further hand-inked and pencilled annotations to this copy

[45] The first sheet is missing

[46] Of the only two leaves held, the unnumbered first is a separately signed introduction, while leaf 3, also signed, appears to be the last. It would appear possible that two leaves, to have been labelled ‘1’ and ‘2’, are missing.

[47] Only the final two leaves survive, the first seven being missing

[48] This is hand-annotated by the author with a pencilled reference reading ‘for p. 13’, indicating that it was intended to be inserted in a longer essay

[49] This would appear from the fact of the text ending in mid-sentence to have continued beyond the present page, so both the first page and at least one other are evidently missing

[50] Internal references to the movements of the planets anticipate conditions in July 1916 in the fairly near future, so the date cannot be later or very much earlier than this

[51] The final leaf is annotated in her hand

[52] Onto the blank lower margin of the final leaf has been pinned an additional typed paragraph, pencil-marked in the author’s hand for insertion before the last paragraph

[53] The essay appears incomplete, the sole sheet present being marked ‘1’ and ending mid-sentence

[54] A single-page extract from a mostly lost longer essay on the mythology of the constellations

[55] The subject is Archibald Roosevelt Jr., grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt. He is recorded in public records as having been born on February 18th, 1918; the birth was clearly a recent newsworthy event at the time of this article

[56] The subject matter of this letter is the story surrounding $50,000 in bonds left to the author (presumed Mrs. Thompson) by her wealthy cousin

[57] This essay is incomplete, ending mid-sentence at the foot of leaf 11. It appears to be a recollection of a detailed dream by Mrs. Thompson in which she found herself visiting various classes in ‘the schools of a great Republic’, and was shocked by the incorrect information being taught to the students

[58] This would be Catharine Thompson: Walton was her maiden name before her marriage, and the letter is connected with the work of her father, whose surname was Walton
