Sixteenth Report of the Committee on Devonshire Folklore
by
P.F.S Amery, Honorary Secretary.
Trans. Devon Assoc., vol. XXXI, (1899), pp. 110-117.
Prepared by Michael Steer
The Report was presented at the Association’s 1899 Great Torrington meeting. The Devonshire Association, founded in 1862, is a non-profit organization, dedicated to the study and appreciation of all things Devonian. It is the only society concerned with every aspect of the county and in 1895 was the only one of its kind in Britain. The present Report provides several generally entertaining esoterica, designated “scraps”, on such topics as superstitions, charms and witchcraft. The article, from a copy of a rare journal can be downloaded from the Internet Archive. Google has sponsored the digitization of books from several libraries. These books, on which copyright has expired are available for free educational and research use, both as individual books and as full collections to aid researchers.
