“For whose name sake, I have been made willing.”—­Wm. Penn.

[FORMULE.—­Not proper, because the noun name, which is here meant for the possessive case singular, has not the true form of that case.  But, according to a principle on page 258th, “The possessive case of nouns is formed, in the singular number, by adding to the nominative s preceded by an apostrophe; and, in the plural, when the nominative ends in s, by adding an apostrophe only.”  Therefore, name should be name’s; thus, “For whose name’s sake, I have been made willing.”]
