Summary "Notes and Queries, Number 180, April 9, 1853" by Various is a periodical publication written in the mid-19th century. The work functions as a literary journal that serves as a medium of communication for literary men, artists, antiquaries, genealogists, and others interested in scholarly discussions. Each issue contains a compilation of notes, queries, and responses concerning a range of topics including folklore, language, history, and genealogy. The opening of this volume features a variety of topics ranging from correspondence about political matters in the 18th century to inquiries about genealogical records and folklore superstitions from different regions in England. Notable sections include discussions about the Isthmus of Darien and the significance of various superstitions, such as a belief concerning agricultural drills presaging death.
