Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

IN response to the demand for a Shorter Latin Grammar based on the gildersleeve-lodge work of 1894 the fol lowing manual has been prepared.

Historical detail and grammatical exposition intended for advanced students mainly have been discarded, and the phraseology has been simplified wherever it seemed possible without a sacrifice of scientific exactness.

Still greater abridgment might have been more in accordance with methods that are in vogue just now; but a grammar that shall serve the average student throughout his course in school or college can not be reduced to a skeleton, and we have not been able to gain our own consent to save space by limiting the illustra tive examples to lean and meaningless sentences, holding as we do that the pupil ought to have something more to remember than a mere group of words.

Much attention has been paid to the typography, and by retaining the old section-numbers (as has been done except in the list of verbs, 137 - 165) the parallel use of the larger and the smaller grammars has been facilitated.

In conclusion, we desire to express our obligations to Dr. W. Gordon mccabe, Headmaster of the University School, Richmond, Va., who has read the book in proof-sheets and has given us the advantage of his scholarly criticisms and to Mr. Charles W. Bain, Headmaster of the Sewanee Grammar School in the University of the South, who has also read all the proof-sheets and given material assistance in adapting the book to the wants of younger students.

By these criticisms and others that have reached us we have endeavored to profit, and it is hoped that a wider sphere pf usefulness awaits this result of our joint labors.
