Yewa In Churchyards. The object of planting yews in churchyards has been much disputed. Some antiquarians have asserted that the custom arose in order to supply bows for the purpose of archery, but this idea is in the highest degree unlikely. Gilbert White suggested that one object might have been to serve as "a screen to churches by their thick foiliage from the violence of winds." They might also, he thought, have been placed as a shelter to the congregation assembling before the church doors were opened, or as an emblem of mortality by their funeral appearance. Perhaps rather, as the learned Ray suggested, the yew was, planted in chnrr-hvards hPcniiA from i f. . ,, , Its evergreen foliage and the great age to which it attained it was rpcarrtsil as a symbol of immortality.
