My thanks are due in no small measure to the printers for the care with
which the proofs have been treated, and for the intelligence displayed by
their proof-readers.
The work has occupied me, as I have said, for more than four years ; but
the process of revision has been to me most interesting, and while the labor
expended has been far greater than anything I could have anticipated, I
trust that the result will give satisfaction to an even larger circle of readers
than was obtained by previous editions.
J.B.
I HAVE been very pleased to revise my friend, Mr. Boielle's, work. All I
have done is to would have done himself, had he not died a week
do what lie
before the publication of this work I have read through the work and
corrected evident misprints, taking as my guides the new edition of Webster's
Dictionary, Littrl and Hatzfeld-Dannesteter.
