PREFACE TO FIRST EDITION.
I
according to the natural character of his band-
writing.
In the old methods cognate sounds being
distmguished by shading it was necessary to
represent the most frequently recurnng sounds
~ by DOWNWARD signs-as in rapid writing only
I
downward lines could be shaded with any
degree of certainty-hence the constant ten-
I
,.
dency of the writing m these systems is down-
wards. The result Is obvious-lineahty, and
consequently phrasecgraphy, ts destroyed and
the writer is greatly harassed by the straggling
and uncertain character of the wntmg We
confidently challenge comparison m this respect.
In lineality and continuity of execuuon, the
system is quite unapproached.
