215. Forenames used as headings precede surnames.

_Ex._ «Christian» II.

«Christian», James.

«Christian art.»

«Francis» II.

«Francis», Abraham.

«Francis» and Jane.

216. Headings like Charles, George, Henry, when very numerous, must be

divided into classes, in this order: Saints, Popes, Emperors, Kings,

Princes and Noblemen, others. The Saints are subarranged by their usual

appellatives, the Popes by their number, Sovereigns and Sovereign

princes in alphabetical order of countries, and under countries

numerically. Other persons are subarranged by their usual appellatives,

neglecting the prepositions.[66]

_Ex._ «Peter», _Saint_.

«Peter», _Pope_.

«Peter» _the Great, Emperor of Russia_.

«Peter» II. _of Aragon_.

«Peter» III. _of Aragon_.

«Peter» I. _of Portugal_.

«Peter», _Duke of Newcastle_.

«Peter», _of Groningen, enthusiast. See_ «Pieter».

«Peter», John Henry.

«Peter, Lake.»

«Peter, Mt.»

«Peter» Lewis, a true tale.

«Peter-Hansen», Erik.

When there are two appellatives coming in different parts of the

alphabet, refer from the rejected one, as «Thomas» _Cantuariensis_.

_See_ «Thomas» Becket.

[note] 66. So that «Thomas» _de Insula_ and «Thomas» _Insulanus_ may

not be separated.[/note]

{84}

217. Arrange proper names beginning with «M’», «Mc», «St.», «Ste.» as

if spelled «Mac», «Saint», «Sainte».

Because they are so pronounced. But L’ is not arranged as La or Le,

nor O’ as if it stood for Of, because they are not so pronounced.

218. In a card catalogue mix in one alphabet names that differ slightly

in spelling and come close together in the alphabet.

_Ex._ Clark and Clarke, and the French names beginning with Saint and

Sainte. The names should be spelled correctly, but the difference

of spelling disregarded by the arranger. But the exceptional order

should be clearly indicated. A guide block should have the inscription

«Clark» _and_ «Clarke», and there should be a reference guide block,

«Clarke.» _See_ «Clark.» The most common spelling should go first;

if the forms are equally used, let that precede that comes first in

alphabetical order.

219. Arrange by the forename headings in which the family name is the

same.

No attention is to be paid to prefixes, as _Bp._, _Capt._, _Dr._,

_Hon._, _Sir_, _Fräulein_, _Miss_, _Mlle._, _Mme._, _Mrs._, or to

suffixes, as _D.D._, _F.R.S._, _LL.D._, etc. In regard to _Hungarian_

names, observe that the name appears on the title-page as it does in a

catalogue, the family name first, followed by the Christian name; as,

“Elbeszélések; irta báró «Eötvös» Jozsef.”
