Robert Erskine's 18th Century Shorthand

In the Erskine Archives, there are letters and pamphlets written in shorthand between 1755 and 1765. In the 18th century there were a variety of shorthand types. This is probably related to Byrom's system. If you have any knowledge regarding historical shorthand, contact Carol Johnson at cjohnson, at njit.edu.
