Excerpt from Short Stories From the Dictionary
After you have got through the prefaces, you will come to a memoir of Noah Webster, by Professor Goodrich, that is not so interesting as the one by Mr. Scudder, of which I have told you, but is still worth reading. Next you have a History of the English language, by Professor Hadley, who was one of the most learned scholars that we have ever had in America.
