OF

called a " mull," from the early machines in which the tobacco was gro and. Large snuff-mulls, which remained stationary on a table, as opposed to the small portable boxes, often took the form of a ram's head ornamented in silver. Possibly from the ground or grated spices with whicn ale or wine is flavoured when heated, comes the expression " mulled," as applied to such a beverage. The colloquial expression " to make a mull," i.e. to muddle or make a failure of something, also perhaps connected with " to mull," to reduce to powder. (3) The Scots word " mull," meaning a promontory or headland, as the Mull of

Galloway

, the Mull of Kintyre, represents the Gaelic maol, cf. Icelandic muli in the same sense; this may be the same as mini, snout, cf. Ger. Maul.
