144 "EA CII," " EVER Y," t6c. [Par. 223, 224.

And Early English (modern Scotch) use: —
(8) "It is some late." "Five mile or some (i.e.
thereabouts)."
"Each," "every," " one," "none,"
"other."
223 1. "Each," "other: "(1) " They hated each other (or) one another."
This is (f.) a contraction for(2) "They hated, each (hated) other," or, "They
hated, one (hated) an other."
In the same way we must explain (I.) by the
Desire of Brevity:(3) "They inquired after-each (inquired after)
other's health."
Here, in modern English,1 we are inclined to treat
" each other " as a Compound Noun; but it is not so.
"Each " is in Apposition to " they," or Subject to
" inquired " understood.
224 Caution. It is a common fault to use "eacll" with a
Plural Verb. Whlere "each" appears to be the Subject of
a Plural Verb, it is really not so, but only in apposition to
the true Subject, e.y.: -
(4) " They arc each going to their several homes."
