Excerpt from Lessons in Graham Shorthand
The importance of position is recognized, and is taught from the beginning instead of being a feature of the Reporting Style only.
The tendency of the pupil to copy is so great that care has been taken not to give the same words in the Reading Exercises as are given in the Writing Exercises, thus compelling him to rely upon his own judgment, with what assistance he can get from the examples.
