Excerpt from Modern Shorthand: Sloan-Duployan System, Reporters' RulesSome idea may be formed of the popularity Sloan-Duployan Phonography from the fact that the First Edition (one thousand copies) of "Reporter" was issued in March, 1883, a Second Edition of several thousand copies appeared a few months afterwards, and now the Ninth Edition is published! It has been introduced into leading Schools, Colleges, Institutes, &c., , throughout the United Kingdom, as being the only system in the world that can enable boys and girls to become practical shorthand writers and verbatim reporters before leaving school for the various departments of business or professional life. Boys are now leaving school writing from 80 to 150 words per minute - a feat formerly deemed impossible. The odium hitherto attached to the study of this useful art, on account of its difficulty (caused by the worthless alphabet of the old style, and the illogical and unscientific abbreviations introduced, calculated only to please those who glory in unravelling mysteries), is now removed, as proved by the enthusiastic manner in which all classes have welcomed Sloan-Duployan Phonography.America, Colonies, &c., - Though but recently introduced into America, Sloan-Duployan has already been introduced into several of the leading Colleges (including the famous Georgetown and Gonzaga Colleges), and private schools have been established at Washington, St. Louis, Georgetown, &c., It is used by several stenographers in the Government Departments at Washington.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
