And if we were to endeavour the facilitating its Progress, the Study of our Tongue might become much more general. Those who have employed some Part of their Time in learning a new Language must have frequently observed, that while their Acquaintance with it was imperfect, Difficulties, small in themselves operated as great ones in obstructing their Progress. A Book, for Example, ill printed, or a Pronunciation in speaking, not well articulated, would render a Sentence unintelligible, which from a clear Print or a distinct Speaker, would have been immediately comprehended. If therefore we would have the Benefit of seeing our Language more generally known among Mankind, we should endeavour to remove all those Difficulties, however small, that discourage the learning it. But I am sorry to observe, that, of late Years, those Difficulties, instead of being diminished, have been augmented. In examining the English Books that were printed between the Restoration and the Accession of George the 2d, we may observe, that all Substantives were begun with a Capital, in which we imitated our Mother Tongue, the German. This was more particularly useful to those who were not well acquainted with the English, there being such a prodigious Number of our Words that are both Verbs & Substantives, and spelt in the same Manner, tho' often accented differently in Pronunciation. This Method has, by the Fancy of Printers, of late Years, been laid aside; from an Idea, that suppressing the Capitals shows the Character to greater Advantage; those Letters prominent above the Line, disturbing its even, regular Appearance. The Effect of this Change is so considerable that a learned Man of France, who used to read our Books, tho' not perfectly acquainted with our..

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Life of Noah Webster, Vol. 2 I should have, with pleasure attended to your request. In relation to your dictionary, but untill this day I have not been able to procure a copy. Your preface, I have perused with great satisfaction, and could wish that you had pushed your remarks and enquiries on the analogies and etymology of the language farther. Many of your observa tions are both new and just and interesting. This is a subject for which I have no inconsiderable taste but other pursuits have not left me, at leisure, to cultivate it. I believe there is a disposition in the men of literary inclinations in this neighbourhood to treat this work with more indulgence than they have been usually inclined to extend to attempts of a kin to this, which have been made, in this country. I have, however, some little doubt of inviting newspaper notice of it until it has gotten into more hands, which it will in a short period I think, gradually. Some man of sarcastic temperature may thereby be stimulated to exercise himself upon it and thus give it a temporary unpopularity. The natural and slow progress of just reputation will, in a little time deter adventurers in this way, and secure the quickest and surest harvest both of reputation 8: pecuniary profit.

CHAPTER IV TRAVELS AND EFFORTS FOR COPYRIGHT In January 1785 Webster had again entered the lists of political debate in a series of papers on the claims of Connecticut to lands west of the Delaware. The assertion of those claims at that time had respect, immediately, to certain lands lying within the present limits of the State of Pennsylvania where settlements had been made by emigrants from Connecticut before the Revolution, and where towns and a county had been organized which were duly represented in the semi-annual sessions of the Legislature at Hartford and New Haven.1 These towns were attached to the county of Litchfield. In the controversy with Pennsylvania, the arguments of Connecticut were 'The original patent granted in 1631 by the Earl of Warwick to Lord Say and Sele, Lord Brook and others, gave to Connecticut one hundred and twenty miles of seacoast, beginning at the Narragansett River, and made 'the South Sea' or the Pacific Ocean its western boundary. The charter afterward given to the Colony by Charles II. in 1662, defined the territory in the same terms as the original patent. The claim was, that the grant in this charter was good against all subsequent grants of the same territory from the crown of England, except where those grants, as in the case of New York, were validated by the express consent of Connecticut. overruled, and the settlers on the banks of the Susquehanna and in the vale of Wyoming, were constrained to submit to the law as it came from Philadelphia. But the resoluteness and strength of argument with which the State and the men of Connecticut then insisted on the boundaries assigned to that colony by their ancient charters, secured to them at last, when the western lands were ceded to the Union, that...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Noah Webster was a truly remarkable man, shrewd, passionate, learned and energetic, God-fearing and patriotic. Mr. Unger has done a fine job reintroducing him to a new generation of Americans." --Washington Times Noah Webster The Life and Times of an American Patriot "More than a lexicographer, Webster was a teacher, philosopher, author, essayist, orator, political leader, public official, and crusading editor. Webster's life thrust him into every major event of the early history of our nation, from the Revolutionary War to the War of 1812. He touched the lives of the most renowned Americans --and the most obscure. He earned the love and friendship of many, the hatred of some, but the respect of all. Noah Webster helped create far more than an American dictionary; he helped create an American nation." --from the Prologue In the first major biography of Noah Webster in over sixty years, author Harlow Unger creates an intriguing portrait of the United States as an energetic and confident young country, even when independence was fragile and the future unclear. Harlow Unger brilliantly restores Webster's monumental legacy as a teacher,legislator, philosopher, lawyer, editor, and one of history's most profoundly influential lexicographers. Breathtaking adventure--from the American Revolution to the War of 1812--and masterful scholarship converge in this riveting chronicle of a singularly American intellect.
