This paper is a logical defense of the essential rightness of the Scholastic theory of distribution, the theory of distributed and undistributed terms. This theory has been severely attacked by Peter Geach, who regards it as a blot on the history of logic. I, in fact, agree with Geach's criticisms themselves, but I wish to overturn his ultimate verdict. The theory of distribution is not a blot on the history of logic, I believe, but rather an imperfect carrying out of a viable and exciting idea.
