Transcriber's note:

Although Scotland had accepted the Gregorian calendar in 1600,
until 1752, England still followed the Julian calendar (after
Julius Caesar, 44 B. C. ), and celebrated New Year's Day on March
25th (Annunciation Day). Most Catholic countries accepted the
Gregorian calendar (after Pope Gregory XIII) from some time
after 1582 (the Catholic countries of France, Spain, Portugal,
and Italy in 1582, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland
within a year or two, Hungary in 1587, and Scotland in 1600),
and celebrated New Year's Day on January 1st. England finally
changed to the Gregorian calendar in 1752.

1627 in England; 1628 in Scotland). Only after March 25th
(Julian New Years Day) was the year the same in the two
countries. The Julian calendar was known as 'Old Style', and
the Gregorian calendar as 'New Style' (N.
