β¦ Synopsis
Without introducing quantifiers, minimal axiomatic systems have already been constructed for l%irce's triadic logics. The present paper constructs a dual pair of axiomatic systems which can be used to introduce quantifiers into Peirce's preferred system of triadic logic. It is assumed (on the basis of textual evidence) that Peirce would prefer a system which rejects the absurd but tolerates the absolutely undccidable. The systems which are introduced are shown to be absolutely consistent, deductively complete, and minimal. These dual axiomatic systems reveal an interesting elegance, independent of their historical motivation.
