I have said so much about 'luck' and about itsnaturalness before, that I ought to say nothing again. But I must addthat the contagiousness of the idea of 'luck' is remarkable. It doesnot at all, like the notion of desert, cleave to the doer. There arepeople to this day who would not permit in their house people to sitdown thirteen to dinner. They do not expect any evil to themselvesparticularly for permitting it or sharing in it, but they cannot getout of their heads the idea that some one or m...ore of the number willcome to harm if the thing is done. This is what Mr. Tylor callssurvival in culture. The faint belief in the corporate liability ofthese thirteen is the feeble relic and last dying representative ofthat great principle of corporate liability to good and ill fortunewhich has filled such an immense place in the world. The traces of it are endless. You can hardly take up a book of travelsin rude regions without finding 'I wanted to do so and so. But I wasnot permitted, for the natives feared it might bring ill luck on the"party, " or perhaps the tribe.
