Tho Letter q.

The letter G furnishes us curious
bit of orIentallsm. Its Hebrew name
is gimel, camel. from the resemblance
Of the Hebrew character to the head
and neck Of that animal. The char
acter was thus almost certainly de-
rived from picture Of that animal.
which, reduced to a hieroglyphic and
then sImpllfied, still dlstantly indicates
the shape OF the head and neck OF the
beast Of burden familiar to every
dweller in eastern lands.
