About this book
William Holmes McGuffey's Third Eclectic Reader is a schoolroom book of lessons numbered in Roman numerals. A lesson on emphasis explains that we speak some words with more force than others, with examples such as asking whether George or his brother is sick, and sets question-and-answer pairs for practice.
The reading lessons include a conversation in which Rob says he is working towards being a bank clerk by keeping a little book, while Charlie answers "Not a whit." Lesson XLI, Ray and His Kite, begins by saying that Ray was thought to be an odd boy who liked to be alone under a tree reading a fairy tale. Another lesson about corn lists its uses, from fodder for cattle to hominy, succotash and cornstarch.
