One of the most noticeable of the ex- pletive usages which beset the rapid writer is the repetition of that after a sentence containing an intervening proposition bearing upon the main statement. Few authors indeed there are who have not at some time experi- enced the risk lf not the reality of be- ing caught in this verbal pitfall. The` difculty of avoiding it is due to the fact that `all the traditions oi` the speech are in its favor. The repetition of the conjunction in such cases has a_ i very ancient and honorable history. It :_ 1' ..... __L :_ A-....I.. @9451! and -tho me which Fa shall by ion. VCLJ uuulvuu uuu u uuuuu cu-up-v --.~.-v-d.. -- is frequent in Anglo-Saxon, and .. th same statement is true of later Eng- lish. Chaucer, for instance. says: There -is a law that sayeth thus: That it a man in one point he aggrieved That in another he shall be relieved. There are occasions indeed when this repetition becomes necessary to. pre- serve ciearness in consequence of the intervention of several clauses. In _ modern days. however. the practice has been so frowned upon that the employ- ment of the second that has been re- duced to its lowest possible limits. Yet idioms die hard, and this one has been rL-_.__' -1 LL- IVLIULLJH \.LlI7 IJIII-|.Lg gnu I.-.nu-: v.-v --uuv V-.vv-- so ingrained into the texture of the race that few persons there are-who after composing rapidly do not find it Incumbent upon them to cut out a re- dundant that _which _ln an unguarded moment has escaped from the pen.- Professor Thomas R.
