Excerpt from The Letter H, Past, Present, and Future: A Treatise, With Rules for the Silent H, Based on Modern Usage, and Notes on Wh The contradictory rules that are given for the employment of H's, and the confusion that reigns in our best Pronouncing Dictionaries, constitute an apology for the appearance of this publication. To promote an uniform pronun ciation based on the sole authority of con temporary usage, is one of its purposes. To draw attention to the nature of the present English Aspirate, is another. To seek redress for the digraph wh, is a third. To render the subjects as interesting to the general reader as the matter would allow, has been the great desire of the writer.
