Footnotes

{2} See note, vol. i. p. 120.

{12} A fanciful word of Portuguese etymology from _nuvem_, cloud = the cloud-man.

{14} _Inha_, when affixed to words, serves as a diminutive. It is much in use amongst the Gallegans. It is p.r.o.nounced _inia_, the Portuguese and Galician _nh_ being equivalent to the Spanish _n_.

{22} "Flock of drunkards." _Fato_, in Gal. as in Port. = a herd or flock. Span. _hato_.

{23} San Martin de Duyo, a village, according to Madoz, of sixty houses.

There are no remains of the ancient Duyo.

{26} Galician; lit. the sh.o.r.e of the outer sea.

{28} "By G.o.d! I am going too."

{29} Who served as a subordinate general in the Carlist armies.

{37} "The good lad."

{43a} In Spanish, _guardacostas_.

{43b} More correctly, _el Ferrol_ or _farol_, the lighthouse. Nothing can more strikingly give the lie to the conventional taunt that Spain has made no progress in recent years than the condition of the modern town of el Ferrol compared with the description in the text. It is now a flouris.h.i.+ng and remarkably clean town of over 23,000 inhabitants, with an a.r.s.enal not only magnificent in its construction, but filled with every modern appliance, employing daily some 4000 skilled workmen, whose club (_el liceo de los artesanos_) might serve as a model for similar inst.i.tutions in more "advanced" countries. It comprises a library, recreation-room, casino, sick fund, benefit society, and school; and lectures and evening parties, dramatic entertainments, and cla.s.ses for scientific students, are all to be found within its walls.

{45} A little town charmingly situated on a little bay at the mouth of the river Eo, which divides Galicia from Asturias, famous for oysters and salmon.

{46} Signifying in Portugese or Galician, "A thing of gold."

{47} Tertian ague, or intermittent three-day fever.

{49} "Come along, my little Parrot!"

{58a} A town on the sea-coast about half-way between Rivadeo and Aviles.

{58b} Query. See note, p. 45.

{59} On the right bank of the Eo, over against Rivadeo.
