GHOSTS OF THE SEA
AS WELL AS OF LAND

New York, Oct. ga good d al
has been heard recently about the
appearance of ghosts on land. Many
a village has IT'S haunted house or
lane, duly regarded with varying de-
gress of awe by the inhabitants.
This being so, 1t is not surprising
that the sea also possesses its quota
of legendary uncanniness.
There is the famous Flying Dutch
man, or phantom ship, or Wander
decken. What truth there is in the
frequent reports that 1t has been
sighted ii is difficult to say, but his
torically there is no doubt that rath-
er hot-tempered gentleman of that
name many years ago left Holland
for the East, by way of the Cape "
Good Hope.
The story is that. meeting with
batting winds. he swore a terrible
oath. in consequence of which the
Divine wrath decreed that he should
for eternity endeavor to weather that
headland.
Another strange sea ghost story is
that during January 1647, a vessel
left New Haven, Conn, but was new
err heard of again. One evening
in the following June. after a severe
storm, she was seen coming up the
river. The inhabitants were over
joyed at her return, but something
uncanny was noticed about her. es-
pecially as she was sailing against
the wind.
Faded Away.
To the onlookers' CONSERVATION
she gradually faded away and dis
appeared Longfellow has marked
the occurrence in poetry:
On she came, with a cloud of canvas,
Right against the wind that blew;
Until the eye could distinguish.
The faces of the crew.
And the masts. with all their rig
ging,
Fell slowly one by one,
And the hulk dilated and vanished
AS a sea-mist in the sun.
That the combined sea and land
tank, about which so much specula-
ton existed during the war, should
have been forecast by a phantom
ship is indeed strange. This is the
specter vessel of Porthcurno, in
Cornwall. and in Robert Hunts "Ro- !

nhabitant witnessed during one of |

sands and steadily pursued its way !
