"I want to know who sends that message, and it's possible that the answer is right under our eyes." He held up the strip of telegraphic tape. "Do you see the letter S, enclosed in parentheses, and repeated before several words?" "Means nothing, so far as I see."
McGiffin wrote an excellent resume of the lecture, but he interspersed through it in parentheses such words as "applause," "cheers," "cat-calls," and "groans," and as these words were enclosed within parentheses he insisted that they did not count, and made a very fair plea that he ought not to be punished for words which slipped in by mistake, and which he had officially obliterated by what he called oblivion marks.
Accordingly, these sources must be stated in the brief as well as in the expanded argument. Thus the rule: Rule XII. After all evidence state in parentheses the source from which it came. In addition to establishing the side of the proposition which it advocates, a good brief almost invariably refutes the main arguments of the opposite side.
The action develops logically, with effective use of retardation and climax, but without disturbing episodes; and the reader is never permitted to forget the central theme. The descriptive element is realistic, with only pertinent details swiftly presented, often in parentheses, while the action moves on. The characterization is skilfully indirect, through unconscious action and speech.
I brought her from this subject so interesting to herself, as soon as decorum would allow me; and I then made inquiry if she knew aught of Oswald or could suggest any mode of obtaining intelligence respecting him. Madame de Balzac hated plain, blunt, blank questions, and she always travelled through a wilderness of parentheses before she answered them.
He took his chin into his hand, as if it were a beard, and looked up at her, considering; and the lines of amusement the "parentheses" deepened at either side of his mouth. "Well, then, I think if the feather were to be lifted a little higher in front, and brought down a little lower behind " "Good gracious, I don't mean my hat," cried Beatrice.
In order to make the story at all intelligible, I have had to pick out my facts, from a perfect labyrinth of sentences and parentheses. All I, or any one else can state is, that these seem to be the facts, which seem to have been proved by the witnesses.
Let the reader imagine the effect in the midst of a theatrical piece, of the yelping of an usher, flinging in between two rhymes, and often in the middle of a line, parentheses like the following, "Master Jacques Charmolue, procurator to the king in the Ecclesiastical Courts!" "Jehan de Harlay, equerry guardian of the office of chevalier of the night watch of the city of Paris!"
Churches on an average are about the same in piety and consecration, but so long as they teach contradictory doctrines they cannot all be right, but may be wrong. The following guide to salvation, which I take from one of my circulars used in gospel work, has the merit of being taken entirely from the Word of God, except the word "warning" and the few words in parentheses.
Across the northeastern corner of Asia Minor will be spread the words "Republic of Armenia" and beneath, in parentheses, "Independence guaranteed by the United States." The whole of Anatolia, save the Greek and Italian fringes just mentioned, will be occupied and ruled by the Turks, for it is their ancestral home.
