THe most Excellent and Compendious piece of Short-writing that ever did
appear in print, Is sold by Jeremiah Rich, Author and Teacher of the said
Art, at the Golden-Ball in Swithins lane, London, by which a Sormon is writ in
the 32 part of a Sheet of Paper, in a Book the bredth of a Two pence, as many
hundreds in this City know, and can be shown in the Publick Liberaries of both
the universities.
This piece of Art is ingraven in Copper, intituled, The Pens Dexterity, of singular
use and comely form; unto which excellency of swi[unr]s no Teacher of
Short-writing could ever yet attain, unless they did borrow their Rules from
the Author; as some unworthy, ordinary persons have, who were lately his
Scholers, and now do Print and reach the Art.
But the Author to undeceive all ingenious persons, does affirm, That as to the
Learning of the whole Art from them, they may count their money and labor
lost; for they will finde it so, since ten years practice will searce make them capable
to teach it as they should.
SUch Laborers and Workmen as want employment, may be set to work at
good Wages, and due payment, upon the repair of the Banks and Drains
within the Great Level of the Fens; and from the Tenth day of April next
be entertained, and constantly continued in work till July following. They
may repair to any of the Towns hereafter named, where they may meet with
some of the Adventurers, Officers, to receive them in the Work, viz. Erith in
the County of Huntingdon, Ely, Littleport, Sutton, Mepal, Witlesey Marsh, Guyhurne,
and Welvey, in the Isle of Ely and County of Cambridge; at every of
which places they will meet with good Accomodations, and at reasonable
Rates.
