Mallet

A mallet — the blunt striking tool — often touches unkind treatment from friends on account of ill health, and disorder in the home. The dream may ask where you feel knocked about by those who should be gentle, and whether your own weakened state is what's drawing their impatience rather than their care.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for mallet, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
