Rev. and dear Sir,
With much fatisfaefion have attended
10 the iheeis, with which YOU have favoured
me The perHtai was rendered peculiarly
pleaang by anticipating the advantages, which,
truIt many thou ands will derive from your
book From ieeing a5out halt of rhe work
Judge favcarably of the rea Your felec
tons Of words for fpeIing and defining, be
lieve to be upon the bei pollibIe plan: hope
theie ielecions will greatly promote rhe ex
ceient Practiie of defining words, which has
been lately Introduced into fame of our
ishools practice, which appears calculated
20 aniwer the principal and mott important
ends, generally derived from TWO or three years
itudy OF the Latin language On the whole
/ do not hei'ate TO give it as my opinion, that
the American Reader" is better calculated 20
improve the pupil in the ART Of reading, and
10 ailst him ia acquiring The mott ufefuI
knowledge, than any o,her book of,he kind.
