- Description/Abstract:
- Text may be from 1875. The author is credited with a Master of Arts degree as as the author of Elementary Grammar and Practical Grammar of the English Language, and of the Grade-School Readers. A series of progressive lessons to teach third and forth grade students to express thoughts accurately and concisely and to criticize and avoid common inaccuracies. The work is an extension of the oral lessons from the author's Elementary Grammar. Grammatical terms are used sparingly. Students are provided with exercises in sentence making and composition. Some exercises give students words to arrange, while others use a few words, an illustration, or an object to spur composing. In addition to chapters on the parts of speech, the text also contains chapters on observation and description, writing from memory, changing verse to prose, and letter writing. The Schultz Archive copy is roughly the complete 80 page text.

- Description/Abstract:
- 1898 copyrighted text. The second of a two-book course for students in seventh and eighth grade—see first part: Primary Grammar and Composition. The preface states the book aims to be concise, using brief and clear definitions, and to use ample illustrations of its principles from works by masters of English. Exercises are used for practice in parsing or for discussion. Part one is devoted to the treatment of the sentence as a whole; part two develops matters of etymology, as well as phrases and clauses; part three covers syntax as well as capitalization, punctuation, and rhetorical figures; part four cover prosody and kinds of composition. The Schultz Archive copy contains the preface, TOC, pages 260 – 301 (covering kinds of composition and the style and art of composition), and the topic index. The copies are of varying quality, some of which are difficult to read.

- Description/Abstract:
- 1854 printing of 1853 copyrighted text (A new edition revised and corrected). The author is credited as a Doctor of Divinity and as the author of the series of grammars, English, Latin, and Greek, on the same plan. Designed as a small work on Grammar, suited for children younger than the usual age for grammar instruction (up to twelve or fourteen). Four sections: orthography, etymology, syntax and prosody. Each lesson has the following order: definitions and rules to be memorized (in large type), subordinate matter to be studied (in small type), a series of questions on the preceding, and practical exercises. Principles of grammar are connected to principles in composition in each lesson. Some illustrations appear in the etymology section. Very similar to Bullions's School Grammar, although it contains roughly thirty fewer pages than that later text. Schultz Archive copy is roughly the complete text.
