The Speech of Monkeys
·
R. L. Garner
4
Only
a
few
of
my
experiments
are
recorded
in
this
volume,
but
as
they
illustrate
my
methods
and
set
forth
the
results,
they
will
serve
to
show,
in
a
measure,
the
scope
of
my
work.
In
the
latter
part
of
this
work
will
be
found
a
definition
of
the
word
Speech
as
I
have
used
it,
and
the
deductions
which
I
have
made
from
my
experiments.
I
have
not
ventured
into
any
extreme
theories,
either
to
confirm
or
controvert
the
opinions
of
others,
but
simply
commit
to
the
world
these
initial
facts,
and
the
working
hypotheses
upon
which
I
have
proceeded
to
obtain
them.
In
Chapter
XXI.
I
have
mentioned
the
particular
characteristics
which
mark
the
sound
of
monkeys
as
speech,
and
distinguish
them
from
mere
automatic
sounds.
With
all
the
gravity
of
sincere
conviction
I
commit
this
volume
to
the
friends
of
Science
as
the
first
contribution
upon
this
subject.
