The sequence in which the digits have been registered is not from the thumb outwards to the little finger, but, on account of various good reasons that will be appreciated as we proceed, in the following order.

The ten digits are registered in four groups, which are distinguished in the Index by the letters A, B, C, D

A. First. The fore, middle, and ring-fingers of the right hand taken in that order.

B. Second. The fore, middle, and ring-fingers of the left hand taken in that order.

C. Third. The thumb and little finger of the right hand.

D. Fourth. The thumb and little finger of the left hand.
