Gurwood began publishing the Dispatches in 1834. Once publication started new materials became available. The original Volume 3 from 1835 was labeled as "Being Supplementary to Vols I & II". And then in 1837 there was another volume, not numbered in the series, and subtitled
"Supplementary to the First, Second and Third Volumes Relating to India". Eventually the first nine volumes were reissued in "New" editions. Gurwood published further editions, "New and Enlarged", in 1844-47 and again in 1852. When the Second Duke of Wellington Published the Supplementary Despatches, beginning in 1858, he included in it any materials added to Gurwood's Dispatches subsequent to the "New" Edition.
