into the Severn, but the croak al
ways remained.
From the days when Robert F'itZ.
Hardinge built the castle with
walls eight feet thick and 50 feet
high, to the present, the great keep
has witnessed many a bloody fray
and secret intrigue. Lord William
Berkeley made a present Of II 10
Henry VII in return for the title OF
Marquis, but the old owners got II
back during the reign Of Edward VI.
The late Earl, after winning a bat.
tie for the succession in 1891, came
in 1916 into possession of Berkeley
Castle and princely Mayfair holdings
in London, including the celebrated
Berkeley Square. Some of these he
sold for $25,O00,000. Thereby, Berk.
eley Castle, under his active super
vision, took on a new lease Of life.
But though the Earl loved the place
he spent little time there. He had
married, late in life, an American
widow, a great.niece OF the poet,
James Russell Lowell, once American
ambassador TO this country. NI
Now that Lady Berkeley is working
in an American Red Cross Club in
London. the castle ghosts can no
doubt be depended on TO do their own
ghosting. Since there are no male
heirs TO the Earl OF Berkeley, the
estate probably will go eventually to
the National Trust, foundation Gre
ated to preserve places OF historic in
terest in Britain.

authentic by both the
Countess of Berkeley
and her late husband.
Legend recounts the
appearance of this re-
doubtable wrath who
had lost his life in a
duel over ownership of
the castle. His coming
was heralded by loud
calls: "Varlets, lift the
portcullis! Lower the
drawbridge! Throw
wide the postern gate"
Then followed { h G

reposed his own head.

Old annals assert that the noble
mans audience included the spirits
of nuns who had been ousted from
the abbey that once stood proudly
on the site of Berkeley Castle.

Father Time laid a warning hand
on her she began, with much trepida-

LONDON.

TOW that the Earl OF n
NJ Berkeley, last of an
illustrious line, has
died without kinsmen,
EngliShmen are speculat-
ing on the fate of Berke-
ley Castle, the ancient
Worcestershire strong
hold on which he lavished
many millions.
But what of the ghosts
that, as all students of
ghostly lore know, have
haunted the castle for cen
turtles? Shall they con-
tinue to do their legendary -
bit by haunting each other?
Take, for example, the 49, \
ghost of King Edward II,
whose shrieks once echoed
from the dungeon where
he was slain in 1927.
This unpopular mon s5S@'ee
arch, detested by his con-
sort, Queen Isabella, was
sent to Berkeley Castle to
mediate on his royal shortcomings.
Ruffians evolved a scheme to in
duce him to commit suicide. They
piled dead animals under his window
and left the rest TO nature. But Ed
ward declined TO kill himself.
Other less subtle torture followed
and so agoniZed were Edwards cries,
says tradition, that they kept every
cody awake for weeks. And at times
they still echo through the castle,
according to present day reports.
Undoubtedly the most spectacular
apparition is that of Lord Isle,
whose spook has the advantage of
