A NEW ENGLISH DICTIONARY

On Historical Principles, founded mainly on the materials collected by the Philological Society.

Edited by JAMES A. H. MURRAY, B.A., London; Hon. M.A., Oxon; LL.D., Edinburgh; D.C.L., Dunelm, etc.; sometime President of the Philological Society; with the assistance of many scholars and men of science.

"Every cultivated person should be interested in the progress of the 'New English Dictionary,' edited by Dr. J. A. H. Murray, Vice-President, and Mr. Henry Bradley, President, of the Philological Society. Among subscription books,—that is, books necessarily issued in parts, at greater or less intervals,—it is surpassed by none in intrinsic worth or in the ease with which the infrequent payments can be borne. Unlike cyclopædias, it can never become completely antiquated, and time will affect it mainly in the particular of neologisms; for, as its illustrations of usage are marshalled in chronological order, the history of each word or meaning may be added to but cannot be detracted from and we cannot foresee the day when a supplement will be undertaken."—From Evening Post Editorial, Saturday, March 25, 1893.
