. =James MadiSON.= } Both names terminating with the same syllable, "son", makes a clear case of In. by sound and spelling. =JAMES Madison.= } In. =JAMES Monroe.= } This pair of names furnishes an example of perfect In. by sound and spelling in the Christian names. =James MONroe.= } In. =JOHN Q. Adams.= } "Mon" and "John" give us a good In. by sound. =JOHN Q. Adams.= } In. =Andrew JACKson.= } "Jack" is a nickname for John--a case of Synonymous In. Now let the pupil repeat from memory the series from George Washington to Andrew Jackson at least five times, each time recalling and realizing how each pair of names was linked together. After this let the list be recalled several times forward and backward, and more rapidly each time, without recalling the analysis. REMARKS. 1. This group may well be termed the "Long-Term Group," since all of the seven Presidents except John Adams and his son, John Q. Adams, served two terms. 2. Three of the members of this group died after the close of their terms of office, on the _natal day_ of the Republic, viz., John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, on the _4th of July_, 1826, and James Monroe on the _4th of July_, 1831. 3. This group also might be called the "J" group, since the initial letter of the Christian name or surname of every member of it begins with "J" or its phonetic equivalent, soft G, as _G_eorge Washington, _J_ohn Adams, Thomas _J_efferson, _J_ames Madison, _J_ames Monroe, _J_ohn Q. Adams, and Andrew _J_ackson. SECOND GROUP. _Period of Territorial Expansion and the Growth of Internal Dissension._ =ANDREW Jackson.= } In. =Martin VAN BUren.= } Two examples of In.: "An" and "Van", and "rew" and "Bu." =Martin Van BuREN.= } In. =William HENry Harrison.= } A good Inclusion occurs in the case of "ren" and "Hen." The name William belonged to no other of the twenty-four Presidents. =William HenRY Harrison.= } In. =John TYler.= } A fair example of In. by Sight ["y" occurs in both names] is furnished by the syllables "ry" and "Ty." =John TyLer.= } In. & =James K. PoLk.= } Con. The letter "l" belongs to both surnames but there is no other letter in common. John and James is a case of Con., for both occur together many times in the New Testament. =James K. Polk.= } In. =Zachary TAYlor.= }
