The "to __" and "of __" brief forms are obviously useful and I'll add them to my studies. OTOH, the particular set of verbs the book selected seem less common or immediately useful to me. Those, I'll wait until the need arises.

From the Anniversary Phrase book  I'm thinking that little dot after "notary public" is a scan mistake or someone put it there.

Going through the phrase book, there were a few "members of..." that I wouldn't use. Or worry about using. Other people may find them helpful.   (Added the second attachment for "members of..." since it's plural)

Notice the 'e' disappears from the word 'they' depending on the next outline in these phrases.

Notice the writing direction of the 'a' in the word 'has' changes depending on the outlines after, even when the word prior is the same. This works because of the way the outlines can be changed in writing directions and still hold the same word.

Phrase penmanship Even though in Gregg Shorthand you can write anywhere on the line, it's easier if you keep it consistent. The phrases with two disjoined outlines should be written easily within the lines (or imaginary lines if you're using blank paper). A few of the phrases below that would start on the line with some at the line and the remainder below the line could be "I understand", "I cannot understand", "thoroughly understand". Here are the ones from Unit 30 in the small brown Anni book to practice (see the book for the rules regarding these if you need to review):
