apply to them the same terms I do to my own brothers and sisters ; 

 the children of this collateral brother and sister are my sons and 

 daughters ; and the children of the latter are my grandchildren. 

 Each of the persons named applies to me the proper correlative. 



My father's sister, in like manner, is my mother ; her children are 

 my brothers and sisters, elder or younger ; the children of these col- 

 lateral brothers and sisters, are my sons and daughters ; and the chil- 

 dren of the latter are my grandchildren. 



My mother's brother is my father ; and his children and descendants 

 follow in the same relationships as in the previous cases. In like man- 

 ner my mother's sister is my mother ; and her children and descendants 

 follow in the same relationships. 



The third collateral line repeats the classification in the second. My 

 grandfather's brother is my grandparent ; his son is my father ; the 

 son of the latter is my brother, elder or younger ; and the son and 

 grandson of this collateral brother are my child and grandchild. 

 My grandfather's sister and her descendants, and my grandmother's 

 brother and sister and their descendants, follow in the same relation- 

 ships as before. As far outward as consanguinei can be traced, the 

 classification is the same. It will be seen more fully by consulting 

 the following table.
