155. In the case of new moons from A.D. 1840 to A.D. 1920, it was thought best not to give the reader even the slight trouble of calculating the anomaly and the equation of the centre; and the exact moment of each new moon during these eighty years as well as the exact day of its occurrence, where it differs from the mean date, is entered in separate columns, in Table XII "General Ephemeris." Here, however, the day and fraction of a day marking the occurrence of mean new moon, and the sun's and moon's anomalies at the moment of mean new moon are also given, as they are necessary for the calculation of tithis between one new moon and another.
