In one Of The baronical castles OF .
tbs north, which had been uuiuhabit-
cd for years, there were heard at times
such extraordinary noises as TO con-
firm the opinion among the conatry
people that 1t was haunted. In the
western tower an old couple wero
permitted 10 live, who had been in
the service Of the former lord but 80
cmbued were they with the supersti-
tons Of the country that they never
went to bed without expecting TO
hear the cries Of the disturbed spirits

current that an heir apparent had
Jeen murdered by an uncle that be

,ver. alter enjoying it for time, was
10 annoyed by tie sounds in the castle

cience from the domain, and died in
France.
Not many years ago the property !
descended TO q branch of the female c
ine-one OF the heroes of Waterloo u
Who nothing daunted, was determin-
ID to make this castle his place Of |
esidence. AS the Loises wei a sub, u
ect of real terror to lis tenantry, he Ii
esolved to sleep in tue castle on the n'
light be took possession in order to
10 away these superst'tious fears. Not

cpt tho one occupied by the old gar :,
eDer and his wife in the western

lst a gigantic shadow OF himself :,
pou the high embattled walls. Here :

hollow moan ran through the long .,
and died away. This was :
'lloyed by one of higher key, a A.

otsieps with more certainty to the
rot. Pursuing the sounds, he found 70
mself in the great hall of his an m
