Notes
The full title of sermon XIII is "Good Friday; or, The Murder of Jesus Christ by the Jews" (pp. [226]-42), an unusually harsh diatribe leveled at Jewish usurers as plunderers of the Christian nations. For the history of this work, originally issued in England in 1830, see Morris Leonard Pearl, William Cobbett: A Bibliographical Account of His Life and Times (London, Eng., 1953), no. 164, calling attention to Cobbett’s repetition of "the stupid slander which alleged a Jewish blood rite." Rinderknecht 23886. Another ed.: Philadelphia. W. A. Leary, [early 1850s?].
