Curious Legacies Left In Odd Bequests And Quirky Wills
A stitched-together Victorian column recounts curious legacies and odd clauses from wills. A man bequeathed a large oak walking stick with a silver head to his nephew, and a damask tablecloth to a sister in memory of Louis IV of France. A Liverpool woman left doormats to nephews, and an eccentric clause offered a bag of sand to rude relatives. A wife was left a farthing to be sent in an unstamped envelope marked Tit-Bits.

Timekeeping by gourd stars and pipes across cultures
The text describes diverse indigenous methods of telling time and distance. Apache use a star marked gourd to gauge night hours by turning it as constellations rise. Annam hill people measure time and distance by chewed betel-nut quids. Washington Irving notes a Dutch colonial tale of tobacco pipes. A Montaguis Indian marks travel ahead by a tall stick and shadows, computing distance from the leader’s ahead-of-friend position.
