The ownership signature at the top the title-page is "John Harris". While there are several possibilities when it comes to a relatively common name this may well be the high-profile merchant and alderman John Harris b. circa 1725 d. 1801 who served as Sheriff of Bristol twice in the 1770s as well as being elected Mayor of the city in 1790. John Ryland opined on Harris's mayoralty saying that when Harris "was chief magistrate of this city in 1790 he was enabled to discharge the duties of that office with great fidelity and respectability and ever since he maintained the highest character for diligence and uprightness in his civil capacity" Timothy D. Whelan ed. Baptist Autographs in the John Rylands University Library of Manches. unknown
