TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE 
LADY SOPHIA GREY. 
T? H E permission to address this little work to 
Your Ladyship, is not the least of the many favours you have 
conferred upon me. 
Duty to my Pupils, and some hope that it may be of 
use to accelerate their progress in an Art you encourage, induced me 
to undertake it; and it is both my pleasure and my pride to have 
this public opportunity of assuring Your Ladyship that I am, with 
the greatest gratitude and respect. 
Your most obliged 
and most devoted Servant, 
M. GARTSIDE.
