Ladislaus Arany in May 1867 read another paper before the same society and according to his calculation some 240 tales had been col- lected up to that date : the collections quoted by him were as follows :
John Erdelyi,* Folk-Songs and Popular Tales, 3 vols. George Gaal,f Hungarian Folk-Tales,

John Erdelyi, Hungarian Popular Tales,

Ladislaus Merenyi, Original Popular Tales,

Member of the Hungarian Academy of Science, 1839. t These tales were collected from soldiers: and are full of unnecessary flourishes and coarse barrack-room jokes. % John Kriza (born 1812, died 1875), born in a small village of Szckely parents.
