PREFACE.

The formality of a preface may seem scarcely necessary for
the supplementing of a system as simple and comprehensible as
the one herewith presented.

We have but to divide any surface we may wish to letter
into squares (or parallelograms as the case may be), in pencil
lines ; form the required letters, in ink or paint, and accord-
ing to the style chosen ; erase the pencil lines, and the lettering
is complete. J. H. C.
