Dr. MURRAY, Editor of the ' Oxford English Dictionary,' says : ' In this its 

 latest form, and with its large Supplement and numerous appendices, it is a wonderful 

 volume, which well maintains its ground against all rivals on its own lines. The ' defini- 

 tions,' or more properly, 'explanations of meaning' in ' Webster' have always struck me 

 as particularly terse and well-put ; and it is hard to see how anything better could be 

 done within the limits.' 



Professor JOSEPH WRIGHT, M.A., Ph.D., D.C.L., LL.D., Editor of 

 the ''English Dialect Dictionary,' says : ' The new edition of " Webster's International 

 Dictionary " is undoubtedly the most useful and reliable work of its kind in any country. 

 No one who has not examined the work carefully would believe that such a vast amount 

 of lexicographical information could possiblj' be found within so small a compass.' 



Kev. JOSEPH WOOD, D.D., Head Master oj Harrow, says : ' I have always 

 thought very highly of its merits. Indeed, I consider it to be far the most accurate 

 English Dictionary in existence, and much more reliable than the "Century." For 

 daily and hourly reference, " Webster " seems to me unrivalled.'
