Touching the derivation of the name Vondervotteimittiss, I confess myself, with sorrow, equally at fault. Among a multitude of opinions upon this delicate point some acute, some learned, some sufficiently the reverse I am able to select nothing which ought to be considered satisfactory. Perhaps the idea of Grogswigg nearly coincident with that of Kroutaplenttey is to be cautiously preferred.
