That's a gem! And Blanchard writing Simplified nonetheless. This is around the time he left McGraw-Hill to teach at the University of Tulsa. He lived a long age: he was 92 when he died in 1988.
I wondered what the Tulsa connection was–I didn't realize he taught there.
Talk about dense! It took me a minute to figure out that the very first word, before the name, was NOT shorthand. I need a vacation!
I puzzled about that first word too. I looked again after reading Marc's comment. Sure enough, the word is "To", written in cursive longhand.
