5. Hutchins, Robert. Stationers’ Register, ed. Arber, iii. 654 “7o Augusti 1619. John Barnes. Entred for his copie by order of a Court A short Catechisme made by Robert Hutchins which was the copie of Joseph Barnes his ffathers ... vjd,” assigned to John Wright the same day. This Catechism cannot be later than 1617, in which year Joseph Barnes ceased printing, nor before 1605 when John Wright began to publish: but I find no other notice of the book or author.
