Synopsis

Excerpt from A Critical Pronouncing Dictionary: And Expositor of the English Language

Having been many years intimately acquainted with the author, and greatly profited by the many personal communications we had together, as well as by a careful study of his works, by which, it is presumed, I had acquired a com petent knowledge of his principles in regard to accentuation, quantity and notation, Mr. Walker did me the honour, a considerable time before his decease, of recommending me as a fit person to edit this Stereotype edition. To the utmost of my power I have justified the confidence that my worthy friend reposed in me, having sedulously examined and revised every page of this arduous and important work, with no less zeal for the honour of the author than anxiety for my own responsibility.
