Helmut, List:

As a matter of fact ...

CSP:  The writer described a system of logical graphs, since named
“Entitative Graphs”, in Vol. VIII of the *Monist* (pp. 163-188); but the
ink was hardly dry on the sheets (or would hardly have been so in [the]
fashion of printing of his youth) when he discovered the far preferable
system, on the whole, of Existential Graphs, which are merely entitative
graphs turned inside out ... (R 280:21; c. 1904-1905)
