A CASE OF GHOSTS

Copyright. 1906, BY r. b Mcclurel
One day Henri du Bots Of Paris, ar
ornamental plasterer by trade, re
celved legal notice that be was heir to
a house and twenty acres Of land IN
the province Of yendoe, on the west
eoast OF France.
The house was only one story high
and was divided into sitting room. bed
room aud Kitchen Doors and win
dows had long been removed. and the
floors had rotted away. but room and
walls were All right. and few days
work enabled the heir e move Ia The
usual gossip about haunted houses was
not lacking Lii this case, and some Of
tile stories told would have made the
plasterers hair curl had he not been
nrm minded.
Du Bois had been settled month be
fore tile ghosts came He had busted
himself breaking up and carting away
the stones and hauling dirt in their
place 50 as 70 have ground for gar
den at least. One night he was awak-
ened By curious sound coming from
the kitchen. lie slept with both inside
doors open, ana there was no cover Of
any sort on the floors. The noise he
heard was that of soft footsteps They
seemed to enter the kitchen door and
cross TO o corner and return to the door
again. lie knew the outside door to be
locked, but he lighted a candle and got
up to see what the noises could mean.
They ceased as soon as he was out Of
bed, and, naturally enough, the man
believed thar be had been half dream-
ing, and he went back to bed and was
soon asleep again. The incident had no
weight with him next day; but, much
70 his surprise, 1t was repeated on the
second night re was awakened at the
same hour by the clock, and for ten
minutes be lay listening At the end Of
that time the fosts seps ceased. and Du
Bots got up and struck a light. TO find
everything as usual
The inside walls had been roughly
plastered when the house was built,
and here and there it had fallen of In
patches, and he determined to give the
walls close inspection and see Il any
thing could be found. He meant to do
this next day, but found that he had to
go to a village for supplies and post
poned It. That night, at the same hour
again, the noises were renewed, and on
the third morning after breakfast a
search was begun. The outside Of the
house was taken frst and was gone
over foot BY foot. Nothing was discoy-
cred 70 solve the mystery.
When Du Bots came to search the In
terror Of the house he made a discovery
almost at once. The ghostly footsteps
had led from the outside kitchen door
to the northwest corner Of the room, a
distance Of about nine feet About a
third OF the plaster had fallen off that
wall, and as the man inspected be soon
came upon stone differing from the
others by being better dressed. It was
plastered in as firmly as any Of the

omers, but IL seemed TO have been set
In after the wall had been built
1t took Du Bots an hour to loosen
and lift out the stone, but never was a
man more literally rewarded for an
hours work. The stone was the door
to a cavity a foot wide and -four feet
long. and In that cavity rested a treas
ure amounting to tens Of thousands Of
dollars. 1t was In gold. silver and jew
els, and there was not so much as the
scrap Of pen to say who had con
cealed 1t.
As near as could be aseertained By
the legal records Of the province the
house had been erected about forty five
years. 1t had been built and inhabited
BIZ an old man and his wife, both Of
whom had died within d few years.
The place had then been tenantless for
some time and had then been taken
possession or by a fisherman. He had
vacated, and another man had come,
but for a score Of years before Du Bols
took possession no one had occupied
the place.
Du Bots did not herald his good for
tune over the country. Like wise
man he said nothing and secretly re-
moved his find to Paris. The stone was
reset In the wall and the plaster re-
paired, and he had hardly made the re-
pairs when be was waited on by an Of
fieer Of the law, who informed him that
a queer mistake had been made. The
property had been left to another by
bis name, and the new heir would
shortly be on to make good his claim.
The plasterer did not wait for the
rlghtful heir to turn up. He had never
been satisfied as to how he came to In
herit, though he had gone on the idea
that the law could make no mistakes.
lie hied himself back to Paris, sold his
jewelry and exchanged his coins and
then did prudent thing by setting sail
for America. He had not been gone
from Paris four weeks before he was
being looked after.
Ia spite of the repairs the new heir
had discovered the stone and the hid
Ing place. Perhaps ghostly footsteps
had also sounded for him. though they
had ceased for Du Bots as soon as he
discovered the treasure. At any rate,
be wanted information and an account
ing. He reasoned very naturally that
the cavity had been made to hold a
treasure and that It would not have
been so carefully concealed again II
nothing had been taken from it.
Du Bots was out Of France and llv-
ing In New York when the officers OF
the law sought to interview him, and be
has not returned to his native land
since. The story Is from his own lips
The value Of the treasure he has not
stated, but you have the word Of the
one who writes the story that bis
search for ghosts brought him a com
petence. IT might have been hidden
by smugglers, robbers or mlser but
as to that he has never concerned him
self. While the treasure technically
belonged to the true heir, who can say
that the ghosts would have helped hin
to recover 1t and that it would not b.
