Note that not only by contributing to over-bulkiness
is lengthiness adverse to the ends of discourse, but
also by contributing to the oppositeness of clearness, to
wit to obscurity and ambiguousness. When
instead of employing the usual instruments of abbreviation
employed in ordinary discourse the legislating or conveyancing draughtsman
employs those extraordinarily-particularizing formulas
the consequence is – that where on this or that
individual instance the particularizable is omitted
through inadvertence, a natural inference is – that it
is by design that it was omitted. Natural the inference
may with strict propriety be said to be is for supposing
such to be the design, by what other form
could he have given expression to it?

Thus when if after during the greater part of a
lengthy paragraph and the two words person and persons
connected with the conjunction and be in this or that
part of it drops use of them the inference is that what
on the particular occasion the intended subject matter of
predication is that one alone which is mentioned – not that
other of which no mention is made.
