Napoleon Bonaparte was born in 1769. As a boy he was finely formed. "{ Sh}a{ p}ely" (69) gives his birth-date by In. by A. and C. He evinced the opposite of the temper usually ascribed to the "{ Sh}e{ p}herd-boy" (69)--a birth-date by Ex. "{ Ch}a{ p}let"--a wreath or garland signed for by him in his ambitious hopes--expresses his birth-date by Con. His death occurred in 1821. "E{ n}{ d}" (21) or "U{ n}{ d}one" (21) expresses his death-date by synonymous Inclusion. "{ N}a{ t}ivity" (21) indicates it by Ex. Since he died from cancer in the stomach, he could retain very little food. "I{ n}{ d}igestion" (21) makes his death-date by Con.
Wellington's birth, in 1769, may be expressed by "{ Sh}ee{ p}-faced" (69), a term his own mother applied to him when a boy. In his childhood, he was blue-eyed, hawk-nosed, slender, and ungainly, "{ Ch}u{ b}by" (69), by Ex., expresses his birth-date. A more vivid concurrence can scarcely be imagined, since he and Bonaparte were both born in the same year, 1769.
Wellington died in 1852 at Wilmer Castle. "Wi{ l}{ m}er" expresses the date of his death by only one year too many. But a means of remembrance that requires readjustment or modification can seldom be relied upon, except by those who are practised in Higher Analysis. He was 83 years old when he died. "{ L}a{ n}tern-jawed" (52) expresses his death-date by In., by A. and C. No man was ever more honored after his death than Wellington. "A{ l}ie{ n}ated" (52) expresses his death-date by Ex. A sudden illness carried him off. Hence "I{ l}l{ n}ess" (52) is a fact connected with his death by Con.
These elaborate illustrations must indicate to any student how to apply the laws of In., Ex., and Con., so as to find analytic date and number words. Cases of Ex. give good practice, but are rarely ever necessary.
_Inclusion_, as applied to the events of life possesses the same variety as in regard to words. In dates of the last and present century, the expression of the _last two figures_ is sufficient. William Cullen Bryant was born in 1794. '94 is found in the name { B}{ r}yant, a case of Synonymous Inclusion. Aaron Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel in 1804. As we know it was about the beginning of this century, this translation of the 4 indicates the exact date and is found in Aa{ r}on and relieves the memory of all doubt.
