   • 1985, Charles S[anders] Peirce, “Logic as Semiotic: The Theory of Signs”, in Robert E. Innis, editor, Semiotics: An Introductory Anthology, Bloomington, Ind.: Indiana University Press, ISBN 978-0-253-35162-3, page 20:

     A Rhematic Indexical Legisign [e.g., a demonstrative pronoun] is any general type or law, however established, which requires each instance of it to be really affected by its Object in such a manner as merely to draw attention to that Object. Each Replica of it will be a Rhematic Indexical Sinsign of a peculiar kind. The Interpretant of a Rhematic Indexical Legisign represents it as an Iconic Legisign; and so it is, in a measure – but in a very small measure.
