SPIRIT OF OLD JOHN
aBARLEYGORN 'ROAMED'
MIFROHN COMMUNITY
"Ghost-Infested" Cabin Prove.
b.. ! Too Much for Two Frohn =
Residents; Thrown Out

A "ghost" story, which threatened
to beat the "devil' story recently
circulated from the southern part of
the state, is now leaking out in Be-
midi and FROM township.
Near Ed Paulson's farm in FROM
township stands an old cabin which,
as far as neighbors knew, has been
uninhabited for the past several
years. A week ago Monday night
a strange looking Light was seen
moving about in the vicinity of the
cabin and soon the word was passed
along that the cabin was inhabited
by ghosts or some such imaginable
creature. The countryside was
aroused and within a few more nights
couple df Frohn's time-honored
citizens took it upon themselves
to enter the cabin and investigate
the cause of the meandering light,
which resembled huge ball of fire.
Reports are that these two intruders
into the realms Of "ghostdom" were
thrown out of the cabin bodily.
From then on the mystery increas-
ed and the plot thickened. with the
result that on Sunday evening last
there was quite gathering near the
cabin to see what sort of special
evening performance said GHOSTS"
However, no one of the gathering
had any great desire to invade the
cabin and be thrown out, the treat
ment which had been accorded pre-
vious visitors.
Soon an interested and curious
party from Bemidji arrived on the
scene and after looking over the
lay Of the land decided to venture
a trip into the cabin, provided they
were furnished with a lantern. They
were not thrown out nor did they
meet any GHOSTS" The cabin was
without human inhabitants but show
ed signs Of recent and probably con-
slant use. Gradually the "ghost"
feeling has died away and it is ex-
pected that the community will again
enjoy good nights sleep. The
opinion has been offered that the
cabin may have been used by MOON
sinners who took this means to keep
the public away from the place, the
cabin being located near thickly
wooded spot, an ideal place for
still, although no such paraphernalia
was found within the house. "Moon-
shine" may have been responsible
for the meandering light.
