Of the various functional types of theD ative in the several I ndoE uropean languages no single one, whether original or acquired, has been given so little consideration or Jias been dismissed with so summary a treatment as that ordinaril)rdesignated as theD ative of A gency. Indifferently bandied about, but more commonly assigned to the original I ndo-E uropean Dative, as one of its natural developments, it has in grammatical works of all kinds come to assume the character of a colorless subspecies, to all intents and purposes long since tracked to its lair, duly identified and ticketed, with never a suspicion as to its complete make-up attaching to it. Delbriick, so far as I know, was the first to indicate along the entire line of I ndo-E uropean case-studies an ultimate Instrumental origin forD atives of such function; but in the more recent of his works he has contented himself with declaring the impossibility of a definite division between the two cases, as far as the inherited status of any given language is concerned, and is in fact tacitly in favor of relegating the whole usage to its old place under theD ative of Personal I nterest. A lately published book giving a passing notice to the subject even seeks to derive from the latter viewpoint additional support for its quite plausible theory of the development of certain Possessive Genitives from the use of Pronominal Datives ;and tho manifestly a representation of a condition consequent upon the one here under discussion, it nevertheless is a significant index of the current conception of theD ative of A gency. It has appeared to me that the full value of the construction could more easily be ascertained if it were not subsumed, as merely one of the many constituents, under the general division of theD ative of Personal I nterest, nor therefore determined, for 1A blaiiv localis instrumentalis, Berlin
