The Ghost and the Editor.

Out on the prairie about eight
miles northeast of here is the home
stead of the late Peter Shook. About
the only improvement Oh the place is
a dug out. There seems to be some
difficulty about who shall occupy
the land since the death of Peter. A
sister of his claims it as the only re'a-
tive. Not long ago man and his
family moved into the house. About
II o'clock the first night they were
awakened by loud raps OIL the door.
The man got up, went to the door
and opened il, No one was 10 be seen
and he returned to bed. Pretty soon
the raps came again, and he went TO
the door again and could see no one.
lie asked who was there, and the an
swer was "Peter Shook" lie asked
what he wanted, and the answer came
that he wanted him to get out of that
house. The man being very much
frightened said if he would let him
alone until morning he would leave.
This naturally created quite an ex-
citement in the neighborhood, and
some young men, who said they were
not afraid Of ghosts, concluded they
would go and stay one night. The
same apparition made them call and
scared them TO such a degree that
money would not induce them to
make another attempt.
ID. B. London, editor of the Benning-
ton Star, being man of great cour-
age, concluded he had curiosity
enough to go and investigate the mat
ter and one Sunday couple ofyoung
men came to town with q buggy,
took him out to the place, supplied
him with the necessary bed clothes
and left him. Everything was quiet
until about II o'clock, and then there
came three distinct raps on the door
This aroused the editor, and he be-
held right in front of him the spirit
ual form which invited the editor 10
vacate the ranch, which he did,
without any further ceremony.
lie was much demoralized and
started out on run, but instead of
running toward Bennington he struck
out at lively gait toward Concordia.
lie happened to meet man who
knew him. The gentleman seeing
he was very much frightened, stop
ped him and asked where he was 60
ing. The editor said to Bennington,
and the gentleman informed him
that he was OH the wrong road,
turned him around and started him
from Bennington, and he came into
town next morning about o'clock,
his hair all standing on end and all
turned white.
1t is impossible to gain any infor-
nation from the editor of what lie
saw, but he says if anyone else has
any curiosity to see the ghost of
Peter Shook they had better go out
there. lie has seen enough to satisfy
him.-Bennington QKan.) Correspon-
