'tis a problem

fiachra.harte · 2006-10-27 13:52:17

When I abbreviate the words "it is" to "'tis" the apostrophe represents the missing "i". What I want to know is, if I write this at the beginning of a sentence, do I use a capital "t" or does the apostrophe represent the "i" that is missing.

'Tis or 'tis is the way I'd do it anyway.
