If so, it looks like there was a reprint by Longmans in 1955. The original dates to somewhere before 1885, since Harvard's library catalog shows a third edition in that year. Morice is also the author of "Stories in Attic Greek," a rather nice little reader at the intermediate level. Sidgwick collaborated with Mountford (also editor of "Bradley's Arnold") on a Greek prose composition book, as well as editing various other texts. I believe he's the son of Henry Sidgwick. --Anne Mahoney Tufts University .
