"When the City of Providence published its twenty-one volumes of The Early Records of the Town of Providence, only a few copies of Vol. XXI were printed. Consequently many sets of these important records lack this last volume, which is especially valuable since it is the "Second Part of the Second Book for the Recording of Deeds and called Deed Book No. 2". The earliest date is 3 Feb 1661 and the latest date is 12 Mar. 1712/13. The transcript of the first part of this deed book is found in The Early Rercords of the Town of Providence, Vol. XX, the earliest date of wich is 7 Feb. 1653 and the latest date 7 Dec. 1715. The Rhode Island Historical Society has published a consolidated Index to the Early Records of the Town of Providence, Vols. I - XXI. Since so many libraries lack the last volume of the set, the Society now publishes this facsimile of Vol. XXI. - Richard LeBaron Bowen, President; William Greene Roelker, Director, Providence, Rhode Island, 1 March 1950" - from the Preliminary Page.
