they TOLD UNoANNY STORIES
some of the Weird Tales which Were
Heard In OId Scotland.

Heard In Old Scotland
Burns tells that, in his boyish days,
he owed much to an old woman who
resided in the family, and who had, he
supposed, the largest collection in the
country of tales and songs concerning
devils, ghosts, witches, wraiths and
other such trumpery, says the Kill
marnock Standard. When l was a boy
in Girvan stories of the same kind
were plentiful wnen the talk began at
the areside in. the long winter nights.
And most wildly do 1 remember the
fearful joy with which used to listen
to them, and the speedy race home I
had (not looking over my shoulder)
when the party had broken up. Burns
says that so strong an effect had those
stories on his imagination that even
in his later years he kept sharp look
out on suspicious places, and I sup
pose most of us can say the same.
Many of the stories I used to hear re-
ferred to ghosts, warning knocks be-
lore death and unearthly cries proceed
ing from places where people had been
drowned or murdered. But the devil
figured largely in others, and the hole
in the rock near Lendal was pointed
to as circumstantial evidence that
could not be gainsaid, as we'll as the
circular rings on the summit of Craig
anrarie. But these stories were not
grewsome enough for some tastes, and
SO for their especial delectation the
story of Culzean's burial used to be
told in full detail, and was ever lis
tened to with bated breath. Sir Archi-
bald Kennedy of Culzean, who shot
Gilbert McAdam at Kirkmichael, came
himself to die. 1 dare say the man
may have persuaded himself that he
had done nothing more than his duty
in shooting the covenanter, but not so
thought the peasantry of the west. And
SO, after his funeral in the old college
OF Maybole, awful stories began to
spread themselves abroad. 1t was af-
tirmed that the coffin got so heavy at
times on the road that the horses could
rot draw it, while at other times it got
so light that it could hardly be held
down. This circumstance was uncanny
enough in all conscience, but it did not
point to anything definite. And so this
additional circumstance was vouched
for-that on the day of the funeral
(the date was 171O) a vessel belonging
to Girvan $50 there could be no doubt
OF it, was sailing in the Firth of CLYDE
when the captain saw a chariot with
horses of fire careering along the sur
face OF the sea. He boldly hailed it in
nautical phrase: From whence to
whence" And the awful reply came
back: From hell to Culzean's burial"
That settled the matter. There could
be no doubt after that. And so we boys
drew long breath and made home for
bed.

Happy was Bishop Potter's reply to
a brother prelate whom he CHANGED to
be visiting last summer at a popular
seaside resort. AS the bishops were
walking home from the Sunday morn

the many bathers in the surf, clad and
unclad in all manner of costumes. The
resident prelate turned to his visitor
saying with sigh: What should Won
