"K" is pronounced as if spelled "Kay," a good In. with "Tay."

=ZachARy Taylor.= } In.
=MillARd Fillmore.= }

The letters "ar" occur in both the Christian names.

=MillARd Fillmore.= } Con.
=FrANklin Pierce.= }

The "ar" of Millard and the "an" of Franklin is a case of Con. reversed,
_i.e._, "an" and "ar" is Con. since "n" precedes "r" in the Alphabet.
Here the alphabetical order is reversed.

=FrANklin Pierce.= } In.
=James BuchANAN.= }

The "an" in Franklin is identical in spelling and in sound with the two
"ans" in Buchanan.

Let the student recall the series of names from Andrew Jackson to James
Buchanan several times, and at each recall let him also recall the
_relation_ which bound the pairs together, and then let him recall the
series from Washington to Buchanan, both forward and backward, without
consciously reviving the relations.

REMARKS.

1. This may be called the "Single Term Group," since none of the group
served more than one term.

2. The group is notable for the fact that it is the only one in which
two Presidents (William Henry Harrison and Zachary Taylor) died
_natural_ deaths while in office.

THIRD GROUP.

_Period of Civil War and Reconstruction._

=JAMes Buchanan.= } In.
=AbrahAM Lincoln.= }

This pair of names furnishes an In. by _spelling_, not sound, "am" in
both, but not pronounced alike. This must be _noticed_, as it is a weak
In.

=Abraham LinCOLN.= } In.
=Andrew JOHNson.= }

The "l" in "coln," and the "h" in "John" are silent. It is a case of In.
by sound. To the ear the sound of "Con." is like that of "Jon."

=ANdrew Johnson.= } In.
=Ulysses S. GrANt.= }

"An" in Andrew and in Grant has the same sound.

=UlyssES S. Grant.= } In.
=Rutherford B. HayES.= }

"Es" in Ulyss_es_ and in Hay_es_ is the same in _spelling_--but not in
sound. It must be _noticed_, as it is the weakest of all. A stronger tie
has heretofore been given.

=Rutherford B. HAYes.= } Con.
=James A. GarFIELD.= }

There is a strong association between Hay of _Hay_es and and the field
of Gar_field_, as in the familiar word "Hayfield."

=James A. GARfield.= } In.
=Chester A. ARthur.= }

In "Gar" and "Ar" there is a strong In. by sound.

=Chester A. ArTHUR.= } In.
=GroVER Cleveland.= }

Between "thur" and "ver" there is a clear In. by sound.
