Adjoining TO the inhabited mansion, there
was formerly large square tower, with
a winding stone staircase to the top !;
the floors were all gone, bur the stone
roof was entire it was the custom here
for all strangers who assembled to the
top Of the tower, to creep on their
hands and knees to the corner Stone
of the highest pinnacle, and kiss the
same, by virtue of which, the parties
were ever after said to be endowed with
extraordinary powers of loquacity and
persuasion. Though no body could
have believed that kissing the stone had
any such effect, the custom was follow
