207.
With
Punctuation.
The
same
sentence,
properly
pointed,
and
with
capital
letters
placed;
after
full-points,
according
to
the
adopted
rule,
may
be
easily
read
and
understood:
Death
waits
not
for
storm
nor
sunshine.
Within
a
dwelling
in
one
of
the
upper
streets,
respectable
in
appearance,
and
furnished
with
such
conveniences
as
distinguish
the
habitations
of
those
who
rank
among
the
higher
classes
of
society,
a
man
of
middle
age
lay
on
his
last
bed,
momently
awaiting
the
final
summons.
All
that
the
most
skilful
medical
attendance--all
that
love,
warm
as
the
glow
that
fires
an
angel's
bosom,
could
do,
had
been
done;
by
day
and
night,
for
many
long
weeks,
had
ministering
spirits,
such
as
a
devoted
wife;
and
loving
children
are,
done
all
within
their
power
to
ward
off
the
blow.
But
there
he
lay,
his
raven
hair
smoothed
off
from
his
noble
brow,
his
dark
eyes
lighted
with
unnatural
brightness,
and
contrasting
strongly
with
the
pallid
hue
which
marked
him
as
an
expectant
of
the
dread
messenger.
208.
The
Apostrophe
'
is
used
to
indicate
the
combining
of
two
words
in
one,--as
John's
book,
instead
of
John,
his
book;
or
to
show
the
omission
of
parts
of
words,
as
Glo'ster,
for
Gloucester--tho'
for
though.
These
abbreviations
should
be
avoided
as
much
as
possible.
Cobbett
says
the
apostrophe
"ought
to
be
called
the
mark
of
laziness
and
vulgarity."
The
first
use,
however,
of
which
we
gave
an
example,
is
a
necessary
and
proper
one.
