It is not doubted but the candid Reader will find the following BOOK
in correspondence with the title, which will supersede the necessity of
any other recommendation that might be given it.
As the
complier of it engaged in the undertaking at the instance and
importunity of many persons of eminent account and distinction, so she
can truly assure them, and the world, that she has acquitted herself
with the utmost care and fidelity.
And she entertains the
greater hopes that her performance will meet with the kinder
acceptance, because of the good opinion she has been held in by those,
her ever honour'd friends, who first excited her to the publication of
her BOOK, and who have been long eye-witnesses of her skill and
behaviour in the business of her calling.
She has nothing to add, but her humblest thanks to them, and to all others with whom she has received favour and encouragement.
ENGLISH Housewifry.
