ALLEGED GHOSTS.

Have GHOSTS" ever been seen here?
SUPERSTITIOUS.
The excitement in regard to al
legged ghosts of which you speak oc-
CURED about thirty years ago, when
a painter on his way home one dark
night alleged he had been chased by
an ETHEREAL object while passing south
on Pitt street in front Of st. Paurs
Church. Other people who passed on
the same square later saw, or imagin-
ed they saw, what they took to be a
messenger from the spirit world.
Some timid people for a time were
deferred from passing the edifice
alone after dark. The excitement,
however, was shortlived. A year or
two later, while some workmen were
Willing away the we sma' hours OF
the night on the stone slab at the
Fairfax street entrance to the Wilkes
street tunnel they supposed they saw
woman gliding, insteadof walking,
by them. There was an instant cry
of ghost and stampede The entire
of ghost and a stamde. The entire
neighborhood was aroused. The story
spread and the next night people from
all quarters Of the city assembled IN
the hope that the supposed spectre
would appear. 1t failed to do 80,
however. Although the tunnel has
been the scene of more than one dark
crime, no one has supposed 1t to be
the abode Of restless spirits. During
the second year Of the civil war a
man was killed there one night and
his body placed on the track. A
train came along and beheaded him
One summer evening about the close
of the war young soldier, whose
throat had been cut, was placed on
the track. The engineer of train
which later entered the tunnel saw
the body and stopped his locomotive
before striking it. The perpetrators
Of these crimes were never discovered
and doubtless will not be until thu
day when that which has been done
in secret shall be proclaimed upoI

Queries and Answers.

There are several tombs IN the
cemeteries OF this city bearing Latin
epitaphs. The one you refer to marks
the resting place Of man who was
somewhat prominent in the communi-
ty in his day. William Mills was the
Superintendent Of Police Of Ale1an-
dria many years ago. He was expect
ed to look after the sanitary condition
OF the city. This official general rode
a horse In making his rounds OF the
city. Mills was man Of limited In
telligence, but he preferred the COM
pany of the learned and when able to
do so made himself one of their num-
Der. He is said to have had life
long aversion to Latin, and his inti-
mates, aware of that fact, were fond
of using quotations from that dead
language for his benefit. The object
Of their prosecutions was of an irrita-
BILE nature, and generally became b.
censed at the annoyance he expert
enced. The Latin inscription upon
his tomb is believed to have been
post mortem joke upon the deceased.
The huge cot1n-shaped stone in old
Penny Hill buryins ground is as much
Of a mystery to the present genera
ton as the Great Pyramid OF Egypt.
The tradition Is that stone-cutter OF
Colonial Days was buried under 1t.
There is no inscription upon the stone.
Penny Hill was not always Alexan-
dria's potter's field, but in the early
history of the city 1t was the city OF
the dead OF the great and small, rich
and Door. This is shown by the
remnants Of headstones still to be
seen there.
