lips, to whom I shall take another opportunity of
offering my acknowledgments; the Majindanao
and Papua from Forrest’s Voyage to New Guinea;
the specimens of the Madagascar in their respective
orders, from Drury and Flacourt; and that of
the Friendly Islands from Cook’s last voyage.
Should the reader derive either amusement or
instruction from the little sketch I have now given of
the history of the numerals of the Indian Islands,
he will owe it chiefly to the assistance I have derived
from the writings of one of the most ingenious and
original of writers or philosophers, Mr Leslie of
Edinburgh, whose treatise on the Philosophy of
Arithmetic has been my guide throughout.
