35. IS THAN EVER A PREPOSITION?

fter than there is almost always an ellipsis of several words. In lying these words, the latter clause must be made analogous to the eding; as, "John has written more than James (has written)." only exception to this is in the use of the relative who, which etimes becomes whom, where the corresponding clause requires the inative; as, "Than whom, Satan except, none higher sat." If the onal pronoun be substituted for the relative, it would be in the inative case; thus, "None sat higher than he (did)." The conction of the relative in such cases seems to be a well established ge of the language. In such a sentence I would not call the conction a preposition, but in parsing the relative I would say, that IAN is sometimes followed by WHOM, even when the corresponding use requires the nominative." (Page 137.)
