Tho origin of tho expression "windfall," which is usod whon ono wisbos to refer to n streak of good luck, dates back to the tlmo of William the Conqueror. At that time it was n orlmlnnl offunso to cut tim? ber In tho British forests without royal consent. All that oould bo gathered for fuel or other purposes whs such limbs as the wind should happen to break and cast to tho ground. On this account tho peas? ants hailed a great windstorm as n bless? ing, Ixwnnse it was apt to oast enough of "windfalls" for wintor firewood. From this old tlmo forestry custom oomoa the modern application of the expression. At one time It was decreed that only such Umbfl and wholo trees as should fall dur? ing tho three summer months could bo used as firewood, but tho unjustnoss of tho net was so plainly apparent that do at? tempt was over made to enforce It.??t.
