The rest should be to the left, before a stem. Otherwise, it looks like the rest should follow the note which precedes it. This is an obscure rule, so you can find erroneous examples easily. I have seen both correct and incorrect examples in old music of Sor. In both cases there were many measures repeated with the same usage. The newer and shorter z or s rest was invented before 1808 to make this problem somewhat less likely.
