Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Authors' and Printers' Dictionary: A Guide for Authors, Editors, Printers, Correctors of the Press, Compositors, and Typists, With Full List of Abbreviations
HE present edition has been revised under my direction M r. E. Howard Collins having died on Nov. 16, 1910.
In going through the pages it has been noticed that a number of other persons have died since the first edition was issued; and where dates could be ascertained correction has been made. There are doubtless further entries which ought to be amended, but it would involve very great labour to verify all dates, even if material for doing so were readily available; and the question has no bearing on the correctness of the spellings adopted.
