The Onlooker

a ghost in Hackfeld street residence
hack in the nineties.
"A merchant now some years dead
kept bachelors hail in the domicile
and one of his more intimate friends,
connected with the business end of q
newspaper, told me that the tenant
was greatly worried over the Gnac-
e0untable unlocking of a door leading
into the sitting room. The victim
was growing thin from the loss of re-
pose due to the operations of the sup
posed burglariOus spirit.
Having had the nabit from early
superstitious childhood of testing all
manifestations of weird ASPIRATIONS,
which had gradually expelled all SUI
perstition from my mind, through the
natural expectations of the mysteries
always resulting from examination at
close hand. l volunteered to accom-
pany the friend to the haunted house
one Sunday afternoon.
Having received a cordial Vel
come, tinged with careworn express
Esion, we soon had the particulars OF
the ghostly trespassing told US, the
door and its fastenings being shown.
1t was not a lock that had been
opened by the spirit but a square
bolt of brass running in sockets,
which had been drawn on each Wis
itation. Our host stated that the door
would fly open within but few min
utes, sometimes, after the bolt had
been sent home. Perhaps the thing
would not happen for whole evening,
but invariably the door would be
found open in the morning.
shorty after arrival we were in
vited to partake of hospitality kept in
the ice chest, but l excused myself
with the plea of the drydock and an
absence of thirst for even innocuous
fizz My friend having retired with
the host, bo1ted the door of mystery
and sat down beside it. A slight vi
bration of the door was the first mani
festation observed, which was ac-
companied by trembling of the bolt.
Then, perceptible only to the closest
watching, the bolt was seen to be
gradually working back. Long be-
| fore the others returned to the room,
the bolt had withdrawn itself and the
door swung open 1t took only a
slight examination then to find that
the bolt mad not been set truly, but
with a slight incline tAat caused it to
slide when the door was gently, rat
tied by the drought OF air passing
| through tie house.
Anyway, the ghost was laid and
| the health of the tenant of the domi-
cile from that day visibly improved,
and it was some time after that be-
fore he gave up the real ghost in an
other house. -
