A Borneo version (Evans, 475-476) not given in Dahnhardt may be mentioned here in conclusion. In it the plandok (mouse-deer), which has deceived and brought about the deaths of all the larger animals, agrees to tun a race with the omong (hermit-crab). The crab stations three companions at corners of the square race-course, and wins. The mouse-deer runs itself to death.

Supplementary Notes.
1. [109]
Dr. Boas gives the bibliography of "Dr. Know-All" in America in JAFL 25 : 151.
A Sinhalese variant may be found in Parker, 1 : 179-185 (No. 23).

Page 11 (footnote). Dr. Boas informs me that petate is a Mexican-Spanish word borrowed from the Nahuatl.
Full bibliography of Grimm, No. 122 ("Donkey Cabbages") is given in Bolte-Polivka, 3 : 3-9.
In JAFL 28 : 56 is a Pen.o.bscot story containing the loss of three magic objects, transportation to a distant place, escape of princess by means of transportation-cap, discovery by hero of magic apples, punishment of princess, and the recovery of the magic objects (see Thompson, 401).

Page 25 (A). For a list of Hindoo stories in which the hero is only a span high, see Parker, 2 : 256.
Page 25-26 (B1-5). In a Biloxi tale not belonging in other respects to our group, the hero's uncle puts the hero to some hard tests, hoping to make away with him (see Thompson, 376).
Page 26 (B2). The attempts to kill the hero in a well by throwing huge rocks on him are found in some of the American variants of the "Strong John" cycle. (See Thompson, 435-436, for French-Canadian and Maliseet versions.)
Page 26 (D.) In a Maliseet tale (Thompson, 340) the strong hero sets out on his travels with a giant cane that will hold fifty salted cattle.

are found the extraordinary companions (see Thompson, 336-344).
