[Note that the _full_ meaning of this Proposition is (as explained at p. 12) "Some existing Things are xm-Things".] This tells us that there is at least _one_ Thing in the Inner portion of the North Half; that is, that this Compartment is _occupied_. And this we can evidently represent by placing a _Red_ Counter on the partition which divides it. .---------------. | | | | .---|---. | | | (.) | | |---|---|---|---| | | | | | | .---|---. | | | | .---------------.
