The ghost in question was the property of Sir | Pereival Morton, or, perhaps, I should rather say, it was an appurtenance to the estate in | whieh he hada life interest. Sir Percival Mor- ton was a baronet who lived in the west of Eng- atatine place called Wick Court. His iy, for a baronet’s. was of great antiquity, which promised well for my success. 1 with aletter of introduction from a 1 friend, one late autumnal day I pre- sented myself at Wick Court. I was somewhat @sappointed to find the house was a compara- tively modern erection—it being a generally d thing that ghosts prefer the dis- mforts and inconvenlencies of old tumble- down wansions. : Sir Percival Morton was one of the most proud and pompous men it has been my lot to meet. At first he absolutely declined to give | me any information on the subject of the family specter. and when, aiter much entreaty and ome flattery, ie consented to enlighten me, I was compelled to assure him that J was in no way connected with a newspaper. “Ha-hum,” said Sir Percival, “you see that ifes are obliged in these days to be t concerning their ancestral apparitions. retie Asa rule these are connected with dark tales | and tragedies which are not for the vulgar ear.” It was this very unwillingness to give informa- ation which assured me that I was at laston the fa real ‘t—that inthis case I should ‘able imposter, Solagreed remarks; humored him to the top of his bent, and by-and-by heard the truth about his ghost. a ghost with some marked peculiarl- ties. Like many other reputed spirits, it ap- peared once a year. In its case the peculiarity was that {t timed itself by the day of the week | —from Sir Percival’s own observation it was to be seen onthe Monday night which was the nearest to November the 20th. It confined its operations to an outbuilding which in olden times was used asachapel. This chapel, now in ruins, was the only existing part ot old Wick ut. The present house was built by Sir Percival’s grandfather. In this dilapidated ‘| place of old-world worship the apparition | showed itself once a year, and after pertorm- |ing various mysterious ghostly antica, de- i, and left the place at peace for twelve months. | Sir Percival toldme all this at first, not sec- hand. Insome things, in spite of his self- importance, he was a man alter my own heart, | insomuch that he had no vulgar fear ot spirituai | visitors. Indeed, he gravely informed me that out of respect to the restiess spirit of one of his own kin he made a point of Spending the I honored the man for his bravery and family pride. Ineed not say how interesting this talk was | to anardent but hitherto unsuccessful ghost stalker. I begved Sir Percival to honor me by telling the history of the dark tragedy which gave rise to the specter. He blushed slighty, aud tor a moment hesitated. “lam sorry Iam unable to do so,” he said; “at present it Is wrapped in mystery; I have ransacked the family archives without’ success. Lam, indeed, beginning to suspect it is a host |imported into the M@rton family by marriage. As I dare say yon know, we intermarried with the Ballards, an extinct Roman Catholic family Much persecuted in Elizabeth's time.” J assumed a knowledze of the Morton pedigree, and then asked Sir Percival how long the ghost | had been in the family. | “Its first recorded appearance was in 1820, the year of my birth.” respectful interest I manifested in his ghost, for | presently he asked me If I would like to inspect | the ruined chapel. I gladly accepted the offer. It wasa buildingof about thirty feet long: the roof was groived and the windows lancet- shaped. Fragments of white plaster still clung tothe walls and ceiling, in the latter of which | were holes opening to the sky. My heart beat joyfully. It was the very place for a ghost! | Sir Percival drew my attention to several large rusted iron hooks which were driven into the walls at Intervals; then he led me to one corner of the building and showed me what looked like the remants of a rotted wooden framework of hoblong shape, and which, when entire. must have been about eight feet long. I asked for an explanation. | “I am inclined to believe,’, he sald with solemnity, “that weare gazing on the remains of an instrument oftorture calledarack. You | will notice,” he contined, picking up a fragment | Ttake it, it is | | ot wuod, “this piece is rounded. part of one of the roilers or windlasses around | which the rope was passed.” My curiosity was greatly excited. I turned 0 Sir Percival. “Oh, Sir Percival!” T exclaimed, “may I ask |you a great favor? Believe me, I approach this matter not in vulgar inguisitiveness, but io reverential interest. Will you permit me to be present when the spirit makes {ts next ap- pes IT might even be able to give you ‘ance Infathoming the mystery which has hitherto baffled you.” “I fear that you would but waste your time, my dear sir,” said Percival rather loftily. “As | a rule, ancestral ghosts are invisible to a stran- ger's eye.” "ermit me to make the attempt—it can dono | harm.” “Twill take the matter into consideration,” said Sir Percival with gracious condescension. Shortly afterwards we parted. All through the latter part of October and the | early part of November I was on thorns ot sus- | pense. That Sir Percival’s ghost was a bona fide article 1 felt assured The question was, would its owner grant my request? I ventured to write, and once more urge it, and my Joy was great when he at last wrote me and asked me | to come down to Wick Court on Monday, No- vember 21. My only fear was lest some absurd family pride on the part of the ghost might in- duce it to remain invisible to my eyes. sir Pereival received me cordially, as was due to an invited guest. Lady Morton and the fam- ily were away, so my host and I dinea and spent | the evening alone. “It was easy to see that the | yearly task whieh the baronet laid upon himself Was one which weighed by n0 means lightly.

Presently Sir Percival sighed ly and touched me on the arm. I followed the direc- tion ot his gaze, and in the center ot the chapel saw to my intense delight a nebulous cloudy substance forming.

However, this theory is out of place here. I have embodied it in a pamphlet, which I purpose submitting to the Psychical Society. Anyway, that night I saw the semblance of a woman—a middle-aged woman, her face grave and lined by care, hopeless despair written on every feature. Her arms were bare almost to the shoulder joints. Her fingers were long, attenuated, and shriveled. Her iron gray hair was disheveled ard unkempt. it did not stream down her back, but was twisted up in hasty fashion, as though she had beea suddenly called from her toilet... The fee!ing at once stole over me that even now the poor restless spirit was enduring the tortures of the damned. This belief of mine may have been enhanced by the remarkable change ot temperature which attended the appearance of the phantom. Cold as the air was when he entered the chapel; thoronghly ventilated as was the building by the holes in the roof, in less than fire minutes perspiration was starting from every pore in my |skin. I was fain to unbatton m: | noticed that Sir Percival in a mecha Ly | followed my example. It may have been but } | my faney, but now and again it seemed to me | that a red light flasied along the wall of the | chapel. Moreover, a sickly, cloying, but at the same time not unfamiliar odor seemed to permeate | | the strangely heated atmosphere. I congratulated | | Myself that the spirit [had found was far removed | | from the conventional typ Now as to the mot important part—the actions ofthe ghost. Iam right in calling these most | important, asa concensus of evidence sho | that it is ¢ by its actions that a disembodie spirit is ab’e to give information as to the | | reason for its appearance of the object of its jerrand. To avoid any risk or mistake, I de- | scribe these actions word for word as I jotted |them down immediately after the interview with Sir Percival’s tamily ghost came to an end. First—For at least twenty minutes the spe trai woman, in the attitude of one bent by bodily or anguisii of mind, worked her hands with feverish rapidity one against the other. Men.:— She stood at the side of the chapel with her face turned to the wail. Second—She stood erect, and for a while seemed as if engaged ina strugile. Her hands grasped some unseen object, possibly in the pit a human arm; she seemed to throw all her h into her grip, and by the peculiar rotary motion of her hands seemed to be twisting the limb until the agony ofher victim must have been past endurance. Third—' proceeded slowly to the corner of the building in which stood the decayed rack. Here she paused, and after some actions, the meaning of which were beyond my compre- | hension, bezan slowly to move her hands as one | who turns a windlass. | AsI watched this last action, I could almost | | persuade myself that I could see the shadowy jand abnormally extended limbs of the poor | wretch upon whom such diabolical tortures had | been perpetrated. | Altogether this ghostly pantomime must have lasted for an hourand a half. Then the specter turned and with the same slow step came towards us. Sir Percival: Morton fell upon his knees. His volee echoed through the lofty | building. “Unfortunate spirit of my unknown ancesters,” | she cried Rieatrlealy. but. for all that, with jemotion. “Every night 1 pray for the repose of | thy guilty soul. Give mea clue to the dark mgstery. Teach me how to lay thy vexed spirit at rest.” | The ghost gave hima long look of supreme | hatred, and, without further sizn or token, | Vanished from our sight. | 1took the baronet back to the house, where | for a couple of hours we sat up discussing the case in all its bearings. “There is no doubt,” said Sir Percival, ‘that in bygone ages some fearful deed of darkness took place in that chapel. Everything seems to point to a prolonged succession of tortures. But as to who was tortured, or by whom he or she was tortured, or why the tortured was ap- plied, I have not a grain of intormation. I would give much to learn the truth.” | “You have gone through all the old family papers, I suppose?” but they throw no light on the sub- ject. | I felt that finding out why the ghost haunted the chapel was only second in importance to | seeing it. So I made a bold reques' IT am an idle ma: Percival.” I said. “Would you mind my making researches in your | family records He reflected for a minute; then he said, with | great politeness, ‘My ancestress having deigned | to show herself to you, I will give you ace all times to the munin | had learnt why that poor tortured spirit haunt- | ed the earth. | The interest I took in the matter may be im- | agined When I say that for weeks and weeks I | dug and delved ainong the rusty old papers of parchments in the muniment room. I found much that would have interested an antiquarian, but nothing which bore upon the particular sychical research In which I was engaged. I was much nettled. Thad now been Sir Percl- val’s guest fora long time, ana I felt mysei? | pledxed to solve the mystery. At last I found a | clue. | One morning I turned up a iittle brown-coy- Jered book. Lopened it carelessly. It was a | kind of diary kept by sir Percival’s father. Curiously enough, I opened it at the date of November 20, 1819. Here I read thls passaze: “That unfortunate woman, Sarah Jopland, took | her own life this mornin.’ If T have been’ hard upon her Heaven forgive me!” Here was a discovery! A woman upon whom the late Sir Percival had “been hard” destroyed herself on November 20, 1819! The first recorded | appearance of the specter in November, 1820! iy bands trembled so that I let the book fall. I | was now fairly on the track, but resolves to say | nothing to my host concerning my great discov- | ery until I had completely mastered the case. | First of all, Iwas bound to find out in what | relation this Sarah Jopland stood towards the late baronet. I could not help jumping to the | conclusion that there must have been an illicit amour between the two. Such intrigues are | prolific ghost-producers. But even if my sus- picion was correct, it would not account for the torture unless it were permitted to Sarah Jop- land’s aggrieved spirit to torment the spirit of | her betrayer by the obsolete method of rack and | thumb-screws. » until £ found ont who | Sarab Jopland was, speculation was worse than useless. So I asked Sir Percival with assumed indiffer- ence ifhe remembered the name in connection with his family. _ “It does not strike me as being famillar in that way.” he said; “but it isacommon name fe the village. You will find a dozen Joplands ere. Sir Percival left the court that day. He was going to town for aweek. Itold him laugh- ingly that I hoped before his retarn I should have cleared up the mystery. “T hope so, too,” he said, gravely. “This un- happy ancestress of iniue is a zreat weight on my mind. A long pedigree has its disadvan- | tages as well as its advantages.” As soon as his back was turned I went down to the village and iuund the eldest Jopland ia the place. He was also that trouvlesome crea- ture, the oldest inhabitant. He was as well up in his own humbie taiily history as was Sir | Percival in that of the Mortons and tne Bal- lards. From old Jopland I learned the fate of Sarah Jopland, and why she haunted the ruined chapel of the Morton family. 1am sure I cannot make known the result of my inquiries better than by reproducing the letter which two days afterwards I was able to write to Sir Percival. I can very weil copy it, as it les before me now, Sir Percival having sent It back to me accoinpanied by a curt note which bezged me to leave Wick Court at once and consider ur acquaintanceship at an end. Here is my letter: Wiix Court, December 18, 187—, My Dear Sir Percitvai—I picture the de- light with which you will receive the intelii- gence that I have completely cleared up the mystery surrounding the perturved spirit which haunts the ruined chapel. I am glad also to be able to set your mind at rest by assuring you that the ghost is not that of an ancestress ot yours. The truth is we commeticed our re- searches much too far back. The apparition is a comparatively modern one. Its first appear- ance was the one recorded in 1820, An entry in x ar late father’s diary put me onthe right track. It states that on Novem- ber 20, 1819, a woman named Sarah Jopland had committed suicide. Iwent to the village and saw the oldest surviving member of the Jopland family. This Jopland—who, by the bye, is a tenant of yours—I found to be a man of nearly ninety, garrulous and intelligent; moreover, possessed of a tne undecayed memory. He was, in spite of his loquacity, at first much averse from giving me any information on the subject. In- deed, I had to assure him that I called by your ex] wish. Then he told me as follows: Jopland was his aunt. She hanged on November 20, 1819, on one of those iron hooks in the chapel. It will, my dear Sir Percival. at once strike you how mistaken we were as to the meaning ot those mysterious actions of the spirit. You will see that the bent position and the feverish rubbing of the hands only show All patrons of the great retail shops in the large cities have noticed those quiet yet imperative gentiemen who ate never seen behind the counters, who sell no goods, who say Little, but appear to see and hear everythins that the host, even after death, performs | that is going on.
