Book Excerpts:

To introduce persons who are mutually unknown is to undertake a
serious responsibility, and to certify to each the respectability of
the other. 

Never undertake this responsibility without in the first place asking yourself whether the persons are likely to be agreeable to each other; nor, in the second place, without ascertaining whether it will be acceptable to both parties to become acquainted.

Always introduce the gentleman to the lady--never the lady to
the gentleman.
The chivalry of etiquette assumes that the lady is
invariably the superior in right of her sex, and that the gentleman
is honored in the introduction. 

This rule is to be observed even when the social rank of the gentleman is higher than that of the lady.

Never present a gentleman to a lady without first asking her
permission to do so.


If you are walking with one friend, and presently meet with, or
are joined by, a third, do not commit the too frequent error of
introducing them to each other.
 

You have even less right to do so than if they encountered each other at your house during a morning call.

There are some exceptions to the etiquette of introductions. At a
ball, or evening party where there is dancing, the mistress of the
house may introduce any gentleman to any lady without first asking the
lady's permission. 

But she should first ascertain whether the lady is willing to dance; and this out of consideration for the gentleman, who may otherwise be refused. No man likes to be refused the hand of a lady, though it be only for a quadrille.
