Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Elements of Book-Keeping
The queries on Bills, Receipts, and Drafts, with their Answers, as also the exercises subjoined, are intended to impress upon the mind of the Learner the principal points in the daily practice of Business and the Author can assert, from experience, that the attentive Student will derive the greatest advantage from them.
The Work concludes with a short explanation of commercial terms or Expressions which are used among Merchants, and Men of Business.
The above are the principal points which, in the opinion of the Author, a proper Elementary Treatise for the use of Schools should contain; and this opinion is the result of much experience as a public Teacher, and several years practice in the Counting-house.
