A.TPOR'S NOTE FROM 1891- 2 EDITION.

A there are now several editions of L. of G., different
toxs and dates, I wish to say that I prefer and recommend this
present esc, complete, for future printing, if there should be any;
apy and fie sime indeed, of the text of these 4 38 pages. The
ment adjusting interval which is so important to form'd
I'd work, books especially, has pass'd; and waiting
ot that, I have given (pages 423 438) my concluding
W. W.

cond din, words appear on pp. 41-00 of Volume III.
of the present edition.
