I think you mean the dictionary by Bosworth and Toller. I don't know who Jonathan Slocum is.

To see the table of abbreviations:

1) Click the "Texts" tab at the top of this page

2) Scroll down the the Old English section and click on the link for Bosworth/Toller

3) The original page images of the table abbreviations start on page a0003. Or, you can use the XML file which I prepared based on those pages; the link is near the top of that web page. That XML file is really intended for programmers, but you can use it as a hand reference too.
