The printer, Simon Ide (1794-1889), was an industrious young man who apprenticed at the age of fifteen for three years with the Vermont Republican at Windsor. After, he set up his own shop and secured some government contracts. It took him two years to print the New Testament in the workshop he set up in his father's unused blacksmith shop in New Ipswich, NH; at the time of the printing of this Psalm and Hymn book he was back in Windsor, VT. At this time his press was powered by "an old blind horse." He went on to expand his printing and publishing business to a very great, and profitable, extent. - see History of Simeon Ide in The Vermont Journal March 18, 1905. With a signed provenance card from the music collection of A. Merril Smoak, Jr., DWS.
