[*] Those who were in office more than four years were re-elected for a
second term. The second term always began four years after the beginning
of the first term.

[+] Those who were Presidents for less than four years died in office
and were succeeded by Vice-Presidents. President Lincoln was murdered
forty days after the commencement of his second term of office, when
Vice-President Johnson became the 17th President.

1. How can the date-words opposite each name be learned?
2. What must be done in case the relation is not understood?
3. What is the relation between William Henry Harrison and "Hard
cider"?
4. Why would not "Sweet cider" do?
5. What Presidents served more than one term?
6. How is this indicated?
7. How many died in office?
8. When is the pupil supposed to learn the series of Presidents?

occasions, when he imitated the policy of Quintus Fabius Maximus
Verrucosus, a Roman General who not daring to hazard a battle against
Hannibal, harassed his a
