Synopsis
Excerpt from Or an Easy and Compendious System of Short-Hand
From that time down to the present, various methods of Short-hand have appeared. Several of these have a considerable share of merit; but many systems which appear very specious upon paper, are found extremely inadequate, when attempted to be reduced to practice.
