Description

The record contained in the present volume forms the first considerable printed collection made in America of superstitions belonging to English-speaking folk.

Numerous as are the items here presented, only a part of the matter is included, the collector having preferred to reserve for separate presentation superstitions connected with animal and plant lore, material which would require a space about equal to that here occupied.

Again, the present gathering by no means pretends to completeness; while certain departments may be adequately represented, other sections exhibit scarce more than a gleaning.

The collection, therefore, will be looked on as a first essay, subject to revision and enlargement.
