Abstract
IN NATURE of May 19 last (pp. 375β76) you were good enough to notice at length my paper on βThe Ancient Legend as to the Hedgehog carrying Fruit upon its Spines,β published by the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society (Memoirs, vol. 63, No. 2). That paper was written with a view to elicit further evidence for or against the truth of the legend, and for such I asked definitely. Unfortunately, so far no one has communicated such to me. I have, however, just found by accident in Nature Notes for 1904 (vol. 16) two records which I had overlooked, and as both are entirely to the point I desire to direct attention to them.
