PREFACE TO TflIRD EDITION.

The Bishopstowe Printing Press was destroyed by fire with
the Mission buildings at Ekukanyeni, in 1884.

In 1893 friends in England gave another Press and outfit,
which, hov/ever, for want of funds, has lain idle until now,
when it has begun work in an humble way, on our father's
Zulù books, and ofiers this little reprint of a book intended
to help both white people learning Zulù, and natives learn¬
ing English, as an earnest of the intention of the Bishopstowe
press.

The next book to be issued will be the fourth and revised
edition of " First Steps in Zulù Kafir," i.e. the book which
in the introduction to the book we have now reprinted, my
father calls " my smaller grammar," but which he subse¬
quently expanded.

Harriette Emily Colenso,
Agnes Mary Colenso.
