"All x are y'; |(I) | | All y are x'." .---------------. i.e. "All diligent students are learned; and all ignorant students are idle". pg065 (4) [see p. 63] "Of the prisoners who were put on their trial at the last Assizes, all, against whom the verdict 'guilty' was returned, were sentenced to imprisonment; Some, who were sentenced to imprisonment, were also sentenced to hard labour". Univ. "prisoners who were put on their trial at the last Assizes", m = sentenced to imprisonment; x = against whom the verdict 'guilty' was returned; y = sentenced to hard labour. .---------------.

Work Examples Sec. =1=, 17-21 (p. 97); Sec. =4=, 1-6 (p. 100); Sec. =5=, 1-6 (p. 101).] pg066 Sec. 3. _Given a Trio of Propositions of Relation, of which every two contain a Pair of codivisional Classes, and which are proposed as a Syllogism; to ascertain whether the proposed Conclusion is consequent from the proposed Premisses, and, if so, whether it is complete._ The Rules, for doing this, are as follows:-- (1) Take the proposed Premisses, and ascertain, by the process described at p. 60, what Conclusion, if any, is consequent from them. (2) If there be _no_ Conclusion, say so. (3) If there _be_ a Conclusion, compare it with the proposed Conclusion, and pronounce accordingly. I will now work out, in their briefest form, as models for the Reader to imitate in working examples, six Problems. (1) "All soldiers are strong; All soldiers are brave. Some strong men are brave." Univ. "men"; m = soldiers; x = strong; y = brave. pg067 .------
