Notes:
  • "The compiler of 'English grammar, adapted to the different classes of learners,' having been frequently solicited to publish an abridgment ... hopes that the epitome which he now offers to the public, will be found useful and satisfactory. His chief view in presenting the book in this form, is, to perserve the larger work from being torn and defaced by the younger scholars, in their first study of the general outline which it prescribes; and, consequently, to render their application to each part both new and inviting."--Introduction, p. [3].
  • Error in paging: p. 100 misnumbered 001.
  • "Recommendations of this work."--p. [106].
  • "Notice by the publishers."--p. 107-108. Warns against expurgated, abridged, enlarged and otherwise spurious editions of Murray's works. The publishers further state "that they will therefore, with readiness ... furnish the latest London editions, which they regularly receive from the author, to any respectable printers ... who will only engage to print them handsomely and correctly."
