Short-hand yet shorter: or, The art of short-writing advanced in a more swift, easie, regular, and natural method than hitherto: Whereby the former difficulties in placing the vowels are removed; they, the dipthongs and consonants, further contracted; the particles, pronouns, degrees of comparison, persons, moods, tenses, contrarieties, repetitions, sentences negative and interrogatory, are shortned. The rules are plain, easie to be remembred and applied to any other short-hand, that such as have learned other authors may have hence a very considerable help to write more swiftly without altering their foundation. By George Ridpath1687
A continuation of the Answer to The Scots Presbyterian eloquence dedicated to the Parliament of Scotland : being a vindication of the Acts of that August assembly from the clamours and aspersions of the Scots Prelatical Clergy, in their libels printed in England ; With a confutation of Dr. M----'s postscript, in answer to the former, proving, that it's not the Church of England's interest, to countenance the Scots outed clergy. As also reflections on Sir Geo. Mackenzy's defence of Charles the Second's government in Scotland. And instances on record of Sir George's subornation against Sir Hugh and Sir George Campbel, and the Laird of Blackwood, presbyterian gentlemen. Together with the acts of the Scots General Assembly and present Parliament, compared with the acts of Parliament in the two last reigns against the Presbyterians1693
