Source—A locality. .Appleby de one OS those fam!Q r \n amles which Is .a sutra irgbit development from the name of a place, and, of course, im.. the first instance its use as 'a surname was. to inddcagte that the 'person bearing :it had come+ from that �locaadlty, or was in some way connect- ed with It. Appleby is the name of a town in England. Hence, - barring possible usage on t1i part of a feudal overlord to denote suzerainty, It was the sort of name thaat was adopted by pea's+ons. who had left that town, and settled in. other pants, for it would have been no distinction to speak of a.men as'John of Appleby when he was surrounded by Roggers, Willa, Ramos, Janieses and Roberts, all also of Appleby. • Some etymologists deaived tg`_le place name of Apia by from Angio=Saxon sources, holding that itele a sgoii b alm.- itttoa>. of the wools, "apple" and "by," the latter meaning `Stbwne" As a mat- ter of .fact, however, the town was in existence before , Anglo-Saxon times, and Was known to. the •Romans as "Aballraba," whiteh probably was the Lapin version of a British name.

One of . gang of raw Ba'sslrtos wire had just arrived was given a : twenty foot drill and. told to go to the top of an incline in the centre of the mine end wait there until his boss came. The native started off proudly, car- rying the drill on his shoulder as, if it were an assegai. Halfway up the in cline the drill came into contact with a 'l'ive wire some twelve feet from the ground. Mr. Basuto of 'course got a shock that sent hint flying, and the 'drill Was knocked out of his hand, X' never in my life saw a more startled native. When he picked himself up he stood looking at the drill; then he walked all round it and glanced over the side of the incline to see if the fellow who had hit him were hiding there.- Finally he came slowly back toward •the drill and weaseled it sus- picieusly as, it lay, on• the ground:..By that time virtua'tly everyone in the mine was Watching him.

He had taken only one or two steps, however, when the drill again touched the elec- tric wire. Down went the impleinevt for the second time, and round spun Mr. Basuto. All work had teased, and. the whole mine Was' waiting to see what he would do next. The native stared at the drill as if he expected to see it get and at- tack him; then, crouching low, he crept to the side of.the .incline to make sure once again that no one was hid- ing there. Returning he picked up 'a good-sized rock sea weapon'and ap- proached the drill on tiptoe. He stub- bed it with his -foot; he rolled it over two oar .three times; then he _stooped,. glanced round and began slowly. • to CURTIN' Variations—Curtain, MacCurtin, Mac - Curtain, Jordan, Jourdan.

At the outset It should be explained r � Jourdan, cam Jordan and that the s when the really' are developments, of the names in this group, represent merely'arbitrary changes on the part 'of .the bearers rein+ from ani Pribh name to an Englis name that happened to sound a hit like it. Snob 'Changes were frequently made ars' a result of Eng- lish laws promulgated in, Ireland at various t' prohibiting the use of native nomenclature. There are two Gaeloaspellinrg�s of the name from whilch this group of anglicized formes has developed. They are "O'C 'tlhla�i'n;" and "O'Cruitdn," though the more ancient designation of the elanwas "Mann Cruitin." • The clanname was derived from the given name of the chieftain, who Pound- ed lit, one `C.rakthn: File" :or OrulLtin the Poet" nary as can be "judged from avai+able records, which are oer-- taun as to genealogy, but a bit vague as to dates, +this chieftain lived about 1100 or 1200 A.D.
