A great many people pooh-pooed aL L.y lug saucers but there is suf- ficient evidence now, that we have them. The main body of Ibis story is true. The eoateuts, not dealing directly With the main, issue, well some people Will, take them with a grain of salt, which is their privilege of course, Doubting Thomas'. Times were Lough in Canada in the hungry thirties, This story takes place in the Maritimes, 192.5. 1 mention neither .the vii- lageor province, but it really happened. i had a troupe Of seven, only three entertainers. Every day we fed someone, maybe three or more. livery day somone wanted to join us. it was no problem, except transportation. 1 had a cabin trailer, home-made. that slept three, The four others gen- erally made a shake-dawn in the hall. Many times they were in- vited to homes and we received eatables of all kinds, sometimes free, sometimes for passes. had Bill Sullivan, amateur boxer andwrestler, Shorty Holmes was a painter and sign writer, Jolly ;Jodie was a cook, and a fellow by the name of Anderson, a, mechanic. Anderson was a real souse, could drink almost as li much as Lenny Lamont or jack, Clark. I Made theta work for their keep. Every day I ,put thG boxing gloves on with Sullivan for a Minimum of thirty nil:Mites, After a month I could lick Jack Denillsey with one hand and Cassius Clay with the other. I could have kicked the intestines out of Gordon Stiles and thrown Archie Willis over a telephone polo, et the same time. Now Al Stewart: had a dog, an Irish terrier. This canine was frightened of neither dog or devil. He had a horrible spite et 8cotoh collies and English Bull dogs. He was only a small dog about the size of those flea bitten mongrels of George Davidson's and not as long as that imitation sausage, mangy Mir of Gus Eder's, This night we were playilig in an old I franie hall built like a barn. Double doors in frotit Ladies room to the right, gents to the left. Windows all 'shuttered with inch bonds. Abont One thirty the our buys went into the hall nich was unlocked. Once Weide a CI OSS bar went across the dunes. An iron fastened to the door jams in which the, cross bar Was dropped. The baok had an ordinary luck aim key. 1 had novt.r been asleep, maybe it was two thirty, when 1 heard the ha,1l dour slam against the building and people running, My bed was t oss ways to the door whip 1. threw open and in' came the boys, two of ineun over top of me and two landed on my bed, The dog Jumped and cowered behind Slim Leueet. 1 was using the flash- light. Never a word \\ as spoken. The gas lantern was hanging above Doueet and he got, it going,, The first words came from Holmes "Oh my elod", and they were in reverence. All agreed. they had been awakened by the scared wail of the dog. The place who lit Up better than with a coal oil lamp. A golden ligurei 'was on Limo Wall, head, (no arms), body, aitu no legs, almost square to the waist, motionless; no expressioM The boys grabbed what clothes they could grab and ran to the (rout, the dog last. Well, we dres- sed and went back. No light could possibly get in from the outside, checked the next morning and Ate-checked. 0 could understand the boys taking mass hysteria but what about Mickey, the dog? I did .discover a slide in. the girls room big enough to focus a light, even ii magic lantern. The outside back' door was still locked: Some- one Could have stayed in the girls' room With seine sort of light Your guess is as good as mine. NeXt morning Anderson ault Joditi left. We couldn't get that dog in any ball the rest Of the season, None of the lads bad one drink of liquor. None had beet reading ghost stories. None were superstitious. I told the caretaker Whrn. he arrived. He never made any comment whatever; only One remark will made a month later. The Janitor in another town fOt another hail said to me, you are a brave men, .1 hear you played — hail in so and so. Well there you, are. Your guess is as good as mine, This winter tr I'm still living I will tell you about the spirit that played for me in North Bay. Thanks to the Post I have a girt singer and an accordian player.
