The culminating point of inconsistency is reatehed` when the - nam ue lieinaarne is written so vilely that the whit- �ir has to e.iciose his caret to tel you what it really is. Often t}- e,od y Uhf :i. letter thus signed is legilale enough, showing that the corr'espnncleut has learned to write properly," and that his scrawly signature is a mere affectio,. It may be said thrit hieroglyph prevents forgery ; but this is a bad argument, for the more complicated a writing the easier .can ii be imitated. Far more difficult is it tc counterfeit a simple hand which bears, as all simple hands do bear, a character peculiar to him who wrote it.
