Likewise persons may receive private lessons any other time of the day at Doctor Battle's, where the Teacher boards. Terms: the price of Stenography is Ten Dollars, the Hebrew Twenty. I teach the Stenography in fifteen lessons, the student may take two each in each day, or one, in which course of lessons, I teach him to read and write the hand expertly. The Hebrew I teach in thirty lessons, two each day, in which time I learn the pupils to write, read, and translate it. Each of the above lessons are about one hour in length.
