Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

1928. This volume had its origin in a post-prandial discourse
delivered in 1926 before the "Sette of Odd Volumes," and was
intended to see the light as one of the Opuscula issued by that
Society by and to its members. In the process of preparing that
discourse, the author made discovery of a vast number of references
to the subject in the works of early zoologists, botanists and
thaumatogenists, constituting a veritable literature of the
subject, and as the result, the present compilation ensued.
