Swedish Superstition
One of the strangest superstitlons
is that believed by some in Sweden
that when a man dies after having
been a faithful husband his shirt goes
to heaven with him. If the wife dies
first and the widower is married again
he must destroy his first shirt on thi¬
eve of his second wedding. Oisre
garding the assumption that there is
no good reason why a shirt that lias
given long and faithful service should
not be permitted to accompany Its
master to eternal reward, the origin
of this superstition probably is to t>«
found in the Viking burial custom that
called for the warrior’s incasetnerd in
his best battle clothes, for it was as
sumeU that he would need them—even
la Valhalla.
