 Gmelin observes, in his History of the Plants of Siberia, that the Cossacks 

 burn the twigs of this plant to fumigate those that are afflicted with obscure 

 diseases, or those which they superstitiously suppose to be excited by devils, 

 of whose agency they are extremely credulous, and whom they believe to be 

 pacified with smoke and hideous noises, as being congenial to their own 

 nature.

 The Duke of Bedford has, in his library at Woburn Abbey, a table made of a 

 yew tree, which was found in the fens of Cambridgeshire, four years ago, 

 whilst excavating the ground for the Nene outfall, 20 ft. below the surface of 

 the ground, standing in an upright position, and rooted in the soil. Professor 

 Buckland thinks it possible that it may have existed there before the deluge.
