 Crippled as he was, the Baron's chances of getting employment were ex- tremely limited and his wife cheerfully faced the necessity of supporting them both.

The legend was that the ghostly head made its appearance only when terrible misfortune threatened the family. In some generations it had never appeared, in others it made its appearance several times. It came sometimes in the dark ness of night and sometimes in the brightness of day. Three times only it appeared, on three successive days or nights, and believers in the superstition declared that the only way the calamity presaged by the vision could be averted was by the self-destruction of the man or woman to whom alone it made itself visible
 The written records of the family and the traditions handed down by word of mouth all agreed that the spectral head was that of man of singularly ominous, terrifying appearance. But nobody could say whose ghost the head was or why
