<p>The formula of the analogical inference presents, therefore, three premisses, thus: <math>S^{\prime}, S^{\prime\prime}, S^{\prime\prime\prime}</math> are a random sample of some undefined class, <math>X,\!</math> of whose characters <math>P^{\prime}, P^{\prime\prime}, P^{\prime\prime\prime},</math> are samples,</p>
