Scandinavian, from the Danish _Skyde_, implying swiftness of motion.
Scudder is a name that may with equal propriety be applied to a
Scandinavian rover scudding over a sea of ice, or a Calvinistical
divine scudding over a sea of thought. In either case he is a scudder.

the same derivation. From Talebois, or Taillebois, a name which goes
back to the forests of Normandy, Taillis and Bois, apparently an
equivalent for the English _Underwood_, from _Taillebois_, a cutter of
taillis (underbrush). William Preston Taulbee is a typically Norman
name.

between the States. Nine of his descendants are now in the military
service of the United States, two of them graduates of West Point.
_Tanner._ Hugo de Tanur, Normandy, 1082.

this family. Henry le Wallere is found in the old records. Henry
Waller, of Mason, was a lawyer of ability and distinction.

_Waddel._
_Wadsworth._ Records show that the name was spelled Wordisworth,

marches from Bracken to the Virginian line. He was a man of high
character and of unquestioned courage and capacity. His granddaughter,
Mrs. Mary Ward Holton, is now a resident of Indianapolis. The late
Judge Quincy Ward, of Harrison, and Quincy Ward, the famous sculptor,
were scions of the same distinguished stock.
_Washington._ The President of the last Constitutional Convention
in Kentucky was George Washington (a native of the State), who was
connected by blood with George Washington of Mt. Vernon, General
of the Continental armies, President of the United States, and
sole proprietor of the famous Mt. Vernon Mills, which produced a
brand of flour known as far south as the West Indies, and popular
wherever known. The proprietor had an Anglo-Norman eye for trade, and
nothing, it is said, interested him more than "the prices of flour
and the operations of his mill." He naturally became the leader of
a "commercial aristocracy" in Virginia. Miss Mary Johnson, in her
charming description of early colonial life in the Old Dominion, notes
the same commercial predilections in the Elizabethan pioneers. They
were merchants as well as planters.

"In living form,"--says Mr. Green, "are now to be heard in the
Southwest, words and pronunciations which have remained unaltered at
least since the time of Simon de Montfort." "The Virginian"--says the
same writer--"has a good opinion of himself; is calm, well-balanced;
is self-reliant, and has the English quality of not being afraid to
take responsibility." In other words, his blood is Scandinavian or
Norman, cooled by the icy currents of Wessex. A correspondent of the
_Spectator_ (London) writes: "It is often asked what has become of
old English families. I have just gathered white water-lilies from
the fields of 'De Vere,' now known as _Diver_; one of my neighbors is
'Bohun' abbreviated into _Bone_; 'Roy,' a grand sample of the English
laborer, was recently carried into the old church-yard; for many years
I employed the tall and stately 'Plantagenet,' known on my labor books
as _Plant_; a shop in the neighboring town is kept by 'Thurcytel,' the
modern spelling being _Thirkettle_; 'Godwin,' the last of his race,
died at a grand old age a year ago; 'Mortimer' buys my barley; and
around me we have such names as Balding, Harrold, Rolf, Hacon, and
Mallett."

grammar can deduce the history of the Anglo-Saxon tongue from the
habitual speech of an English plough-boy, what historic significance
is to be attached to the flood of Norman surnames that were "absorbed"
by the Saxon race?--The native speech survived because the dialects

EXAMPLES of atavism or reversion. The Scottish blood (which was the
"dominant" in the Berwick cross) by a gradual process of selection
from continuous or intermittent variations comes at last to the
front; first manifested, no doubt, in the invigoration of the moral
quality, and finally in a physical "mutation"--a return to the
original or characteristic color of eyes and hair in the paternal
gens. The theory of transmission or inheritance of moral and
physical traits in Gaston Phoebus from the Gascon noble is not
materially different.--The problem of "three" bodies (really two)
in the genesis of the _Englishman_, though apparently more complex,
is essentially the same, the "dominant" factor in the process being
_Norman_ or _Norse_.--Whether the explanation be convincing or not,
beyond all question it shows that the Darwinian "scientist" lacks

_suggestive_; five thousand names would be almost conclusive.--A
