Excerpt from The Standard Fifth Reader, Vol. 2: With a New Treatise on Elocution and an Explanatory Index, Containing Biographical Notices of Authors, &C More than twenty years ago we put forth our first reading-book for schools. Since that time we have contributed to this depart ment of educational literature sixteen volumes of lessons for reading or speaking, of which the copies put in circulation may be reckoned by millions. In the preparation of these works, as well as of this now presented, we have been indebted to no 'american compiler, with the single exception of our honored and venerable friend and predecessor, John Pierpont, author of The first-class Book, and to him for pieces only by conspicuous writers like Campbell, Moore, and Bowring, to which our own unaided researches would in all likelihood have guided us. We mention these facts simply to gurd against any unjust inference in respect to priority in the introduc tion and use of certain pieces.
