Mrs. Virginia Frazer Boyle's book. Devil

the American Folk Lore Society on account Of
the accuracy with which she has reproduced
these negro hoodoos. charms and stories. She
says that the stories as she has given them are
just her negro nanny told them to her. and
differ in no respect from the version told her
mother BY her negro nanny. and her grand
mother by hers-surreptitiously in each case. for
tley were supposed TO be among the forbidden
things Mrs. Boyle is from Memphis. and has
given the stories as they were told there; but
the same ones in the same form were spread all
over the South. Though they were preserved so
long by oral tradition, the younger generation is
losing them. A prominent negro lawyer Of Mem
phis came TO Mrs. Boyle's husband with mes
sage Of thanks TO her for preserving them aecu-
rately. on account Of their probable speedy dis
appearance from the traditions OF his race.

replied: Doctor, the general public
should not know too much about these
questions; it is enough that the teach
lers of theology should be familiar with
them: still, as you are good friend of
mine, and 1 know you will not repeat
what I am about to tell you, at least
while ! am living, I will give to You the
explanation, which Is simple. All that
the public should know about the sub
