A tailed race of princes have ruled Rajoopootana, and are fond of their ancestral mark.

There are fabulous stories told of canoes in the East Indies which have holes in their benches made for the tails of the rowers.

At one time in the East the presence of tails was taken as a sign of brute force.
There was reported from Caracas the discovery of a tribe of Indians in Paraguay who were provided with tails.

The narrative reads somewhat after this manner: One day a number of workmen belonging to Tacura Tuyn while engaged in cutting grass had their mules attacked by some Guayacuyan Indians.

The workmen pursued the Indians but only succeeded in capturing a boy of eight.
