FOOTNOTES

Previous

[1] Ro is a universal language invented by the Rev. Edward P. Foster of Marietta, Ohio. According to the New York Times the frogs have talked ro from the first and any child ought to be able to learn it in less than twice the lifetime of Old Parr.

[2] For a further explanation of these very interesting phenomena, read Modern Views of Electricity, by Sir Oliver Lodge.

[3] The pseudotriakis microdon is one of the rarest species of sharks. It is a small toothed nurse shark and is known from only two specimens, one of which turned up on the coast of Portugal and the other on Long Island.
