_Analogy between the Genitive and Plural._--In a note by Rev. J.

Bandinel, in Mr. Christmas' edition of Pegge's _Anecdotes of the English

Language_, 1844, the question is asked at p. 167.:

"Why is there such an analogy, in many languages, between the

genitive and the plural? In Greek, in Latin, in English, and

German, it is so. What is the cause of this?"

Can you point me to any work where this hint has been carried out?
