[Professor E. B. Poulton kindly sends a note from Colonel J. W.
Yerbury, who writes: “Although no record exists of the occurrence of
Hypoderma in Hindustan, I think there is no doubt that the maggots are
the larvae of either _H. diaua_ or _H. acteon_. They have been found
in antelopes—_Antelope saiga_—and _dorcas_ brought to Italy from the
East.”]

Amongst ancient coins and medals, excavated from the ruins of Ujjain
and other ancient cities, I possess a perfect series with all the
symbolic emblems of the twenty-four Jain apostles. The compound
equilateral triangle is amongst them: perhaps there were masons in
those days amongst the Pali. It is hardly necessary to state that this
Trinitarian symbol (the double triangle) occurs on our (so-called)
Gothic edifices, _e.g._ the beautiful abbey gate of Bury St. Edmunds,
Suffolk, erected about A.D. 1377. [See Count Goblet D’Alviella, _The
Migration of Symbols_, 185 ff.]
