A HOTEL GHOST.
The Narrative of "a Singular Experience OF
Lord nEd Lady Dunrayen.

Apropos of a report that the Brevoort
House was to be closed which was de-
MED, however, there is 4 story that Lady
Dunraven has been known to tell about
the famous old inn. The countess is de-
scribcd by those who know her as wo-
man much more inclined to common
sense than TO ghost haunted Cock lanes.
even with Dr. Johnson's authority She
used to tell the facts i'll the tale simply
for what they Were worth.
1t WAS more than one decade ago,
years before the Nall1yrie was thought
of, when Lord Dunravcn was first inter
ested i'll the mining regions of northern
Michigan. He and Lady Dunravcn wero
staying i'll New York for Il few days he
fore starting west and had taken rooms
ut the Brevoort-pleasant rooms, with
Il view of the avenue and Il nice glimpse
of Washington square. The first night,
being tired with their voyage, they went
early to bed, but, as it happened, not so
early to sleep. Both the earl and count
ess were blessed with hearty English
constitutions. They were not at all ac-
customed to lying awake till the small
honors.
They wondered what they could have
done, what they could have eaten or
drank TO afiiict them with such gratui-
tous vigilance. Just ut venture finally
they bundled themselves out into the
adjoining parlor, made themselves ex-
tempore couchos there and slept soundly
till morning. Next night and the night
after there was the same wakefulncSs
and i'll the end the same migration to
the adjoining room for relief. They be-
gan to think they should have to leave
town earlier than they had planned, for
they would not for the world have made
any preteXt 10 shift chambers.
The explanation of the mystery, if it
was an explanation, came out by chance
They had Il call before long from an old
time New Yorker whom they had met
i'll England, an authority on all matters
pertaining to tie towns miuor history.

that they should have given you these
