Filed under Dwarf. (Underground spirit.) The dwarf, especially in Northern Europe, is considered an underground spirit. He is to be distinguished from the other conception of dwarf, viz., a very small person, pigmy, or thumbling (F535). [Note: For help in the preparation of this item I am indebted to Mr. Alfred Thomas of Chicago. For full titles of references see F420.]
