Translation
Having had the pleasure of daily inter
course with Dir. Lanpbier for several months
past, we the undersigned certify, that from
the profound knowledge he possesses OF the
French language, no person is more caPa..
bic than he of teaching its rudiments and
different idloms (Which constitute part OF
it), and indeed the most correct pronunci-
alton. We have also had an opportunity
of conveIsing with several of the scholars
of the same gentleman, who, without ever
having been in France, speak good French.
