********************
The study of capital letters is highly revealing in itself, with many interesting facets. It is modified by the fact that many persons use some accepted style of penmanship with their capital letters, so they often show the results of training rather than personality where types of capitals are concerned.
Thus a person trained to use old-fashioned capitals might continue with them, even though he had a trend toward something more ornate. However, after making due allowance for that, you will often find that some deep trait will creep into the simplest or most stylized of capital letters.

The final letter of a word often carries a habitual flourish that serves as a key to individual characteristics. This may be particularly marked in the last word of a sentence. Accepted indications of the last letter include:

LETTER LENGTHENED:Generally wasteful.
RISING STRAIGHT:
Easily swayed, but given to temper.
