4 THAT, Anglo-Saxon Thaet Tooke's notion of the derivation of this word is noticed above in the section on Articles There is no certainty of its truth; and our lexicographers make no allusion to it W Allen reaffirms it See his _Gram_, p 54

OBSERVATIONS

OBS 1--In the Well-Wishers' Grammar, (p 39,) as also in L Murray's and soely and erroneously represented as being always ”of the _neuter_ gender” (See what is said of this word in the Introduction, Chap ix, -- 32) Whereas it is the relative enerally applied to _brute animals_, and, in our common version of the Bible, its application to _persons_ is peculiarly frequent Fowler says, ”In its origin it is a Colo-Saxon form to be ”_Huilic_,” he thinks it traceable to ”_hho,” or its ablative ”_hwi_,” and ”_lie_, like”--_Ib_ If this is right, the neuter sense is not its primitive import, or any part of it

OBS 2--From its various uses, the word _That_ is called sometimes a pronoun, sometimes an adjective, and sometimes a conjunction; but, in respect to derivation, it is, doubtless, one and the same As a relative pronoun, it is of either nuular; as, ”Blessed is the _man that_ heareth me”--_Prov_, viii, 34

”Blessed are _they that_ mourn”--_Matt_, v, 4 As an adjective, it is said by Tooke to have been forular; as, 'Into _that_ holy orders'--_Dr Martin_ 'At _that_ dayes'--_Id 'That_ euyll aungels the denilles'--_Sir Tho More_ 'This pleasure undoubtedly farre excelleth all _that_ pleasures that in this life maie be obteined'--_Id_”--_Diversions of Purley_, Vol ii, pp 47 and 48
