WRITING-WRITING-WRITING ! - It
is an undoubted fact that 23, Great George-street, is
the only Establishment in Liverpool where the proper styles
of Commercial Writing, and Ladies' Angular Running-hand
are perfectly taught. Mr. O'DWYER has made more good
writers in Liverpool for the last 13 years than any other teacher
professing the art. As a Writing Master he is unrivalled and
unequalled in Liverpool. To persons who never wrote, a good
hand is guaranteed in Twelve Lessons.—For card of terms
apply at 23, Great George-street, opposite Dr. Raffles' Chapel.
