<note>&hand; The <i>holly</i> is much used to adorn churches and houses, at Christmas time, and hence is associated with scenes of good will and rejoicing. It is an evergreen tree, and has a finegrained, heavy, white wood. Its bark is used as a febrifuge, and the berries are violently purgative and emetic. The American holly is the <spn>Ilex opaca</spn>, and is found along the coast of the United States, from Maine southward.</note>
