Gaskell's Compendium of Forms Social, Educational, Legal, & commercial is a book about penmanship, etiquette, poetry, and correspondence written in the year 1881. It contains examples of penmanship and poetry and etiquette. There are several tables of statistics such as city populations and religious majority. It has a lot of advice on manners and relationships as well. It was a very interesting find I picked up, at a garage sale, years ago.
