Christmas Alms
Irish tale from County Mayo about a man who loses family after wife turns away a beggar; he becomes a monk
Author's Note: The following story, of which I here give a translation, is no doubt largely due to the vivid imagination of some itinerant mendicant working in his own interest.

Sant Efflamm and King Arthur
Traditional Breton legend of Saint Efflam , who travels from Ireland to Brittany, rescues King Arthur from a Dragon, brings the King miraculous water, and becomes a hermit-saint with Enore on a hill
Author's Note: This rendering of the Breton legend ‘Sant Efflamm hag ar Roue Arzur' is based on the ballad of that name given by the late Vicomte Hersart de 1a Villemarqu~ in the Barzaz-Breiz.—i.e., Ballads of Brittany (1839).
