Romance in Origb
Of Superstitions : -
By q. IRVING KING.
Paying the Washerwoman. '
Few deep wafer sailors, even in
these enlightened days, would care
to out to sea without paiing their
laundress, whomever else they might
leave unpaid confident that some
thing untoward would happen . to
them if they omitted this ceremony,
This superstition has its origin in the
old belief that witches had power
over the winds and the custom of
buying favorable breezes from them
before setting forth on a voyage. In
many ancient writings do wc find al
lusions to this superstition and this
superstitious practice, venerable, in
its antiquity, even in those remote
times The superstition was a nat-'
nral outgrowth in the minds of sea
faring folk of the once universal be
lief in witches a nautical application
of their supernatural powers. Winds
were sold in the 19th century in the
Isle of Man and perhaps are now .in
some obscure ports. But, as a ruie,
the only vestige of the ancient .su
perstition seen is the sailor's belief
with regard to his laundress. Some
of the old hags who in ancient times
sold winds were probably not averse
to picking up a few extra pieces of
coin by doing washing for sailors in
port. The witch trafficker in winds
gradually went out of business, but
the washerwoman remained. And
not, infrequently, especially in small
and foreign ports, the women doing
sailors' .washings were, and are,
witchlike in appearance. It was-the
lingering connection between witch
like old womeri and the buyinjt of
winds in what' the psychologists
would call the sailors unconscious
that caused him to be sure to pa
such -women before he sailed. And
onre having started with rccrarrL'tii
washerwomen of witchlike aspect
the superstition broadened, until it
embraces today even the mot buxom
laundresses.
