1 don't believe in ghosts but
that's no proof there arn't any.
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

a CI OSS bar went across the

door jams in which the, cross bar

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

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-

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
