Mr. HODGSON

RESPECTFULLY returns his most grateful Thanks to his Employers and Pupils, for the preference they have thought proper to give to his Mode of teaching and writing SHORT-HAND, which he flatters himself is at once as concise and correct as any other System; he continues teaching in four hours, by four lessons, the whole necessary Instructions in this much approved Art. He also takes Trials and Arguments with the utmost Care, which are copied so expeditiously as to be sent home the same Evening, if required.

Mr. HODGSON (without the smallest Imputation on the Systems of his Cotemporaries, whose Merits he chearfully acknowledge) pledges himself to take nothing for his Transcripts, if any Gentleman who solicits a Cause, or the Council whose Arguments he professes to take, are not compleatly satisfied with his Performances.
