4 Ghost Under Tree

A well known business man of Paris.
Tex, relates the following curious ex-
perienee to a correspondent of the St.
Louis Globe: i am neither Superstitious
nor cowardly, but am a firm believer in
the supernatural. My own senses are the
cause of my belief. Several years ago I
was living IN cottage in the outskirts of
this city. The yard was very large, and
back of the house was a big apple tree.
One bright moonlight night had been up
town and returned home about 9 o'clock.
Before I got there | heard the yard dog
bark furlouSly. | found the women alarm
ed. They said that there was man in
the back yard. looked out of the
window and saw his figure clearly out
lined under the tree. His body, arms and
legs We're in plain view but his head was
hidden by the branches of the tree.
He was IN his shirt sleeves and had on
dark pants. | took my revolver and walk
ed out The dog would run around the
tree but would not 80 within 20 feet of the
spot where the man stood. | hailed him.
but he neither moved nor made an answer.

presented, but he stood mute and motion

my amazement, there was nobody there.

but, aside from this, | neither saw nor
heard anything. ] said: There is no
one here. The woman said: Yes. there
Is. There Is man standing by YOU
Il walked back TO where they were
standing and looked back There stood
the man as before then made circuit
arond the tree, keeping my eye on the
spot, but from every point the figure of
the man was visible. Three times pass
ed under the tree, but every time walked
under 1t the man disappeared. Every time
| went to the spot the women would tell
tell me he was there. But he was not.
Neither was he in the tree Meantime the
dog kept up Il continual barking, but
nothing could induce him to go under the
tree. was first puzzled There was no
object anywhere that would reflect such a
shadow as that. Besides. | had viewed
from so many points that knew that it
was no shadow. | became thoroughly
alarmed, and.the idea of spook flashed up
on me. On going in the honSe, the figure
was still plainly visible from the window
The dog moaned so piteouSiy that we took
him in the house. He would go to the
window and whine and growl until we
closed the blinds and pulled down the
curtains. The next day we moved away
from the place. never solved the mystery.
but | noticed that after that no tenant ever
remained there loug. Time brought
about great changes. The town grew.

yard and the house was moved away.

calling his experiences as devil on the
Leader. of Chilicothe, Ohio. "One morn

it. | went over there, and after trying to
understand the German bookkeeper for
some time, was sent to the composing

Chronicle l was tired of running around,

said they would not either. for there was
