PREFACE

TO THE THIRTEENTH EDITION.

THE suspension of the publication of Kühner's Latin Grammar having rendered that portion of the grammatical references in this volume, which was originally made to that Grammar, useless, they have been removed, and parallel references to the new Latin Grammar of Professor Harkness substituted for them.

The author considers himself most fortunate in being able thus early to avail himself of a substitute for Kühner which is so rapidly winning popular favor, and which is, in his opinion, far superior to any of its predecessors.

WATERVILLE, July, 1865.

PREFACE

TO THE TWENTY-FIRST EDITION.

In addition to the grammatical references found in previous editions of this work, parallel references to the excellent Latin Grammar of Bullions & Morris have been inserted. In the careful and thorough examination of this Grammar made by the author while preparing the copy for this edition, he has been very favorably impressed by its merits, and hopes his labors may prove acceptable to those teachers who prefer this to other Grammars.

The order of the references to the three Grammars is uniformly Harkness, Bullions & Morris, Andrews & Stoddard; and they may be readily distinguished from each other by the kind of figure employed for each, this being nearly the same as that used to number the sections in the respective Grammars. Besides, the semicolon is employed to separate the references to the different Grammars, while the comma separates the references to the same Grammar, in case there are more than one.
