The idea of red cell substitutes is not new. In Ovid s Metamorphosis the witch Medea restored Jason s aged father, Aeson, by slitting his throat to let out old blood, replacing it with a magic brew she had concocted (1). Sir Christopher Wren was one of the first to apply the new knowledge about circulation to blood substitutes. In 1656 he infused ale, wine, scammony, and opium into dogs and from these efforts conceived the ideal of transfusing blood from one animal to another. Lower actually carried out the first transfusion experiments (2).

In 1656 a book called The Art of Simpling by William Coles claimed, "The common people formerly gathered the leaves of Elder on the last day of April, which to disappoint the charmes of witches, they had affixed to their doores and windowes. I doe not desire any to pin their faithes upon these reports, but only let them know there are such which they may believe as they please." It is said that for this reason, elder was planted outside Westminster Abbey. 

Sticks of elder have been used to kill serpents and drive off robbers. Even today in Sicily, elder branches are still considered best for this task.
