Simplified Phonetic Shorthand e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. These Lessons in Isaac Pitman's Phonography, and the Language Lessons accompanying them, have been prepared chiefly by William Hope, A. B,, C. A., the senior shorthand instructor of the New York Business College. The work of the subscriber has consisted largely in revision and arrangement.<br><br>Mr. Hope has been a practical reporter and teacher of shorthand for thirty years. His success as an instructor, the field to which he has more recently been devoted, has been rarely equalled and never surpassed, as thousands of grateful pupils willingly testify. His ability and authority as a stenographer are equally unquestioned. It is therefore confidently believed that in offering the fruit of his experience to shorthand students, we present a plan of study which will greatly lighten their labors.<br><br>Language, Correspondence, Typewriting and Penmanship Lessons are now in press which will make a fitting accompaniament to the Shorthand Lessons. It is believed that they will afford exercises in spelling and longhand writing, punctuation, capitalizing, word studies, letter writing and composition which will result in the greatest benefit to the ambitious student. They are so arranged as to meet the demands of the students progress, and if faithfully mastered, in accordance with directions, will render that progress thorough and rapid.<br><br>The subscriber extends his grateful acknowledgements to his colaborers for the untiring zeal and energy they have shown in preparing this work.
