Excerpt from Brief Longhand: A System of Longhand Contractions: By Means of Which the Principal Advantages of Shorthand Are Secured Without Resort to Stenographic Characters, and With Perfect Legibility
The chapter treating of proof-reading will doubtless be acceptable to all who have occasion to correct the press. This chapter and the Table of Common Abbreviations make this treatise a complete work of reference in respect of all the more general contractions employed in the language.
Contractions for each special class of subjects may be devised, to any desirable extent, in accordance with the principles specified in the chap ter entitled General Principles of Contraction.
The remarks concerning the abbreviation of the forms of letters will be found to contain suggestions which may be acted upon, with great advantage, in the uncontracted style of writing.
