Chapter XXXIX: Smallhead and the King's Son

_Source._--Mr. Curtin's "Hero Tales of Ireland," contributed to the _New York Sun_.

_Parallels._--Campbell's No. xvii., "Maol a Chliobain," is the same story, which is also found among the Lowlanders, and is given in my _English Fairy Tales_, No. xxii., "Molly Whuppie," where see notes for other parallels of the Hop o' My Thumb type of story. King Under the Waves occurs in Campbell, No. lxxxvi.
