Note 1 — THE ADVENTURES OF SIMON AND SUSANNA[1] By JOEL CHANDLER HARRIS
Reading edition
It may be of interest to those who approach Folk-Lore stories from the scientific side, to know that this story was told to one of my little boys three years ago by a negro named John Holder. I have since found a variant (or perhaps the original) in Theal’s “Kaffir Folk-Lore.”
Joel Chandler Harris, 1889.
