L'Envoi.

Book lovers may be interested to know that after diligent search by the Publisher, all the different processes involved in making this book—type-setting, electrotyping, printing, engraving portraits, cutting dies, and binding—were found in one establishment, all under one roof, in the City of Buffalo, N. Y.

He believes that this cannot be said of any book of a similar magnitude ever before published.

He would also add that the superior quality of work shown in this production is largely due to the personal and intelligent co-operation of the members of the firm under whose generous auspices "One of a Thousand" has been manufactured.
