Bookkeeping and Other Papers (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Bookkeeping and Other Papers<br><br>At the request of numerous friends and students, I have decided, owing to the First Edition of 3,000 Copies having been exhausted, to print a Second Edition, incorporating, in addition to the papers already printed, my two papers entitled "Collieries" and "Secretarial."<br><br>My object, as on the previous occasion, in thus reprinting is as follows: -<br><br>I. To meet the wishes of students desirous of acquiring technical knowledge on the special subjects dealt with by me in these various papers.<br><br>II. To continue to assist the Funds of the Chartered Accountant's Benevolent Association, of which I have for many years past been a Vice-President.<br><br>The whole of the Profits of this Second Edition will therefore, in the same manner as heretofore, be handed over to the above Funds.<br><br>The publishers, Messrs. Blades, East Blades, of 23, Abchurch Lane, E.C., knowing the object I have in view, have from the outset kindly printed and issued the work at actual cost price, for which I take this opportunity of tendering them my sincere thanks.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
