Note 35 — Chapter IV
Reading edition
Sébillot, “Contes,” vol. ii. p. 34; “Revue des Trad. Pop.” vol. iii. p. 428; Sébillot, “Litt. Orale,” p. 21; Kennedy, p. 106; Keightley, p. 311; “Y Cymmrodor,” vol. vi. p. 166; Wirt Sikes, p. 87. This story purports to be quoted from Howells, p. 349—an impossible reference, seeing that the volume in question only contains 194 pages. The peculiarities of Mr. Sikes' authorities, however, need very little comment.
