I found it, if anyone else ever has this question it is Ibid.

To cite two things from the same source in Chicago style, you would typically use a shortened note and ibid. Here's how to do it:

1. Start by providing a full citation for the source in the first footnote or endnote. This includes the author's name, the title of the work, and publication details (e.g., publisher, year).

Example:
1. Author's First Name Last Name, "Title of Work" (Place of Publication: Publisher, Year), page number(s).

2. For the second citation from the same source, use a shortened note. Include the author's last name, a short form of the title, and the page number(s) on which the information appears.

Example:
2. Author's Last Name, "Short Title," page number(s).

3. In subsequent citations, you can simply use "ibid." (short for ibidem, meaning "in the same place") instead of repeating the entire reference. Ensure that the subsequent citation immediately follows the one for which "ibid." is used.

Example:
3. Ibid., page number(s).

Note: If you are citing different pages from the same source, you would still use a shortened note for each new page indicated.

Remember, it's important to consult the specific guidelines provided by your instructor, publisher, or academic institution to ensure your citations adhere to their preferred citation style.
