The ☞ symbol was used extensively to indicate that more information could be found in the Appendix. However, as the publisher notes at the end of the book, the Appendix was not in fact included in this volume. A second volume was planned but was never published.
The pointer ☞ to the (non-existent) Appendix, when present, has been consistently placed at the end of the entry. It was almost always right-aligned or placed on a separate line in the original book.

ADVERTISEMENT.
The following compilation presents the mere skeleton outline of a great subject; and, in submitting it to public notice, acknowledgment is most justly due to Messrs. Bagster and Sons, for permission to use the literary matter of their interesting and instructive volume, the “Bible in Every Land;” and to Messrs. Longmans & Co., for a like favour with regard to Dr. Latham’s “Elements of Comparative Philology,” a laborious, learned, and useful book, without which the present volume could not have been produced.
