In an earlier paper (2) reflexive transitive binary relations were considered on a connected ordered space. These relations were topologically restricted and their minimal sets were either an end point of the space or empty. It was shown that these relations could be characterized as one of the two orders of the space. Viewing the situation somewhat differently as suggested by I. S. Krule, one could say that this class of relations was characterized in terms of the identity function on the space. In this case the relations are considered in their natural setting, the product of the space with itself.
