GHOST STORY: Ghosts from
Maryland must he lNclicr than nJst
ghosts. or else they have better
publicity agents. So many ghost
stories come from the Eastern Shore
of Maryland concerning such ancient
and highly respected ghosts, that we
think possibly they should be or
&anizcd into t.. S. NJ. G.'s, like the
!. f. V.'s....T The following story
is s~trikinSlv similar to another f. S.
NJ. G.. story we ran in this column.
The two stories were told me by
women living hundreds Of miles
apart, and each woman knew somc-
n connected with the story. One
had seer Il newspaper article about
the ghost and ever a picture Of "'Thc
Lady in Grey, which picture she
is trying now to get hold of again.
In this very old house on the
Eastern Shore Of Maryland, then,
lived a very beautiful young woman.
She was a most unhappy young
woman because She suspected that
her husband vas in love with an
other. She had one child. i.
and after d while she died, leaving
the child in her husbands care. On
n version Of the story she was

was filled with guests, one Of whom
was very tired and went to hey
