TRIM A-'iCESTRAL GHOST
OB,
The Haunted Room at lfemblinr. IT;ill,
(CO WLUDEli FROM LAST WERK.)
He experienced the same difReulty in
opening the room whioh had been telt by
his cousin. The key turned pretty easily,,
but the door stuck. And when lie pushed
it open there was heard a grating noise
which did not seem natural to the nature
of a door.
We have seen what manner of a room
'was the haunted chamber. Bat when it
was last visited it was iu the pale twi-
light of a January day. Now, at the end
of April, the sun wag shining brightly
through the windows, and the room was
cheerful, Certainly not at all the sort of
time for a ghost to walk. Spectres shun
sunshine, as the copy -books might say.
George looked about hint with a little
disappointment. A curiously furnished
room ; that was all.
diction 1 This is the sweet and winning,
smile 1 'Ho ! ho! ho'!"
Jnst then the Puede ceased ; the skele-
tons disappeeeed—that ie to say, they
flew up inti the ceiling ; them was.a sigh,
as if somebody was tired. and glad that
the job was over; George observed that
what he had taken for a disappearance of
part of the wall was really only the fold-
ing beak of the middle of a wooden par-
tition wall, cutting off one .enc) of the
room. He also observed that the bar of
the dvor was lifting as slowly as it had
f;ellen.
All was over, therefore.
He had seen the family ghost ; it was
a doll, dropping slowly to pieces with
age, clamp and ravages of moth ; he had
seen the fearful procession of Dance of
Death, ' e the gibbering skeletons succeed-
ing one another in, quick succession, each
playing its antics as it passed, beckoning
to us with its lean and bony fingers."
(Extract from the narrative.)
Well, there were three musty skeletons
let down from a trap in the ceiling by
string or svir,'es, the lifting' and dropping
of which produced their contortions and
daneiugs. He had heard .the " celestial
orchestra, faint, though complete in all
its parts. playing music not to be de-
scribed, yet ever to be remembered, ac-
companied by a choir of faint sweet voices,
singing what seemed a hymn of praise."
(Extract from t. Narrative.") Yes, lie
had heard it. " By Gad," he said, " it
was a m.usicalbox, and it played au old-
fashioned slow trois-temps 1 As for choir
and heavenly voices—fudge 1"
He had heard the bells and the drums.
Yes, there were bells and drums ; who
could have rung the bells and beaten the
drams ?
The bar was up ; he could go ;, the show
was over.
Yet, what did it mean?
George went to one of the windows and
looked out, thinking. .Beside him stood
a table, of which we know. He took up
one or two of the things ; they were in-
struments used i3x. making and mending
a watch. The table was an old, rough,
black beach, which, in feet, had been the
old man's bench all the years of his work-
ing life. " I remember," said George,
one of them made his money in trade
le was a watchmaker" Then he saw
before the next window a 1tztlie with all
the appliances, and a carpenter's bench,
fitted up with teals. Half -made things,'
rounded blocks, pulleys, small light
chains, lay about the bench. " Old man
was a carpenter and turner, too, I sup-
pose," said George. Then he went to the
next table. This was covered. withbooks
and papers.. " Oldmanread. mechanics,"
said George. He took up one of the
sb.eets, covered with drawings. Then he
took up al. other. Then he looked round
him and nodded. Then he laughed.
Then he looked at his watch. Then he
went to the carpenter's bench, took out
some tools and proceeded to work.
His disappointment did not last long;
a creating sound behind made him turn
round. A large bar was slowly descend-
ing across the door. The progress was
sluw, but it finished by dropping into its
place; the door was closed. George tried
to lift the bar. It was immovable.
" Good !" he said. ' ` This is how Jack
began. Can it be that the ancestor is go-
ing to take an afternoon dander round
the room ?"
Apparently he was, because the closing
of the door was followed by the ringing
of bells, beatixtg of drums, sighs, a breath
of eold air which had so terrified his
cousin.
While he was listening and watching—
in some disquietude, it must be owned—
he felt something delicate and light
touching his cheek ; he turned. quickly.
Nothing.
" Bells," he said, " there certainly are,
and drums ; and there is a noise which
Jack said was sobbing ; it seems to me
like—Hallo 1"
Again the gentle touch upon his cheek;
this time he puts his hand as one catches
at a troublesome fly, and eaught—one of
the peacock's feathers. He then observed
that several of them were slowly lifting
themselves up and down.
"This," said George Dalmahoy, "is
ranee curious than, the bells."
Mounting on a chair he examined the
place where the feather was attached to
the wall. To his great surprise he found
that it zeas fitted into'a small brass tube,
and that the tube itself was moving
slowly up and down, carrying the feather
with it.
Very odd," said George. "It was
not a ghostly finger at my throat, but a
feather ; and the feather is not lifted by
a ghostly hand, but by a brass tube,
And what the devil lifts the brass tube ?
I suppose," he added, aftera pause, "that
the same thing lifts the brass tube which
rings the bells and beats the drums. Is
it the ancestor ? Would he come if I
called him names ?"
It seemed as if the ancestor must have
heard these irreverent remarks, because
at that moment the wall at the end of
the room seemed suddenly to disappear ;
the belie ceased, and music of some kind
was heard.
"All this," said George, feeling more
than a Attie afraid, " is most wonderful,
and just as Jack reefed it all out. To be
sure, I could not make out how he could
have invented it. What next? Oh,
Lord 1"
F
"i' er at that moment the skeletons ap-
peared and began to dance.
The young man's knees kuocked to-
gether for a moment and his cheek turned
pale. Theca he rallied his courage and
"made for" the skeletons.
They were capering with the most gro-
tesque and extraordinary agility, legs and
arms moving all at once, skulls shaking
and nodding, even the backbone twist-
ing, or at least seeming to twist. George
presently seized one of the arras.
George looked in bewilderment. Then
he laughed; he laughed long and loud,
"He is mad," said Laura, suddenly.
George laughed louder still,
"Jade this dreadfr,tl," said Laura.
The others stared in a sorb of amaze-
ment ; what could the man be laughing
at ? It was like a comic song of which
only the singer sees the pcint. They all
looked so bewildered, and Laura so awe-
struck and terrified, that George speedily-
ceased
peedilyceased laughing. Indeed, the belief of
the ghost was now so deep in everybody's
heart that they had finally made up their
minds that the rash young man, like one
who inadvertently looked upon Artemis.
in the forest, had been slain by the angry
ancestor, or else, like one who chanced to
meet great Pan, had been stricken by
some madness. And lo ! he was before
them laughing like an idiot.
"Ladies and gentlemen," said the
young man, "I have an important an-
nouncement to make. The ghost walks
by day as well as by night, If you 'will
follow me into the room you shall see him
for yourself. He is a most obliging ghost,
and will do no harm to anybody."
this thing again; he will Caine out and
cross over to the other side. The perfor-
mance is about to conclude, and, ladies
and gentlemen,I am sure that, in retiring
from this caravan, you will confess that
you have never before witnessed, on so
grand a scale, so ingeniously constructed
a piece of--OLOOI WORli."
Laura, as soon as the door was opened,
passed out the first, followed by Jack,
whom, however, she pushed away rough-
ly ; then she went to her own room and
no one saw her again that day, for, when
the second dinner bell was rung, she sent
down a message that she had a headache.
The Squire, too, with abashed counte-
nance, sought solitude for a time:. But
at dinner he appeared jocund, in high
spirits, even forced spirits, and after din-
ner proposed the health of Mr. George
Dalmahoy," who, he said, had rid the
house of a very' unpleasant occupant -its
ghost, and they were all extremely grate-
ful to him. All the members of the fam-
ily murmured their profound gratitude,
and n certain bride's -maid already men-
tioned, laughed a little laugh, which ev-
erybody understood to be the equivalent
of the immortal "Fudge 1"
And then George proposed another per-
formance, but the Squire gently remarked
that even of mechanical ghosts ono might
have enough. The irrepressible young
man, therefore, spent the evening, until
they began to dance, in explaining how
he had discovered the secrets of the ma-
chinery, the spring wound by the door,
the lubricating oil and all the rest of the
apparatus. All this greatly pleased the
family,, because it brought vividly home
to them the mechanical genius of their
great-grandfather, and destroyed their
ghost and the ancestral glory of the house.
It also pleased one of the bride's-maids—
the one already alluded to.
The next day's wedding was rather a
dull affair. Somehow, the romance of
the thing was gone. Ghost indeed ! The
impudence of parvenus assuming a ghost
when there are already many really old
families with no ghost at all, or at best
the mere memory and shadow of a ghost.
And the honeymoon would have been al-
together a time of rebuke, but that Jack
put his foot down and would hear no
more nonsense about the ghost.
(Tan nem.)
He laid his hand upon the handle of
the door as he spoke.
They looked at each other.
" Oh," cried Laura, " this is dreadful!
Tack, stop him ! Mr. Dalmahoy, do not.
call others after you to their undoing
Oh ! What shall we do ? what shall we
do ?"
For now George pushed open the door
and the wedding guests crowded after,
Jack and Laura following with the rest.
Last of all came the Squire, and upon his
face there was a look of anxiety. Ho had
a sense of impending evil. '
" Spirit of my ancestor !" cried Laura,
sinking upon her knees,." forgive• ;them!
Forgive us all ! Let not this intrusion
lead thee to,revoke thy benediction."
Strange to say, this appeal prod feed no
effect upon the young madman, who only
laughed scornfully.
" You shall see him directly," lie said;
"you can then ask him yourself:"
At this moment the door shut noisily.
"Look at the bar," said George ; "that
is the fust. business ; now we are shut
They all looked at each other, after ob-
serving the descent of the bar.
" The whole secret lies in the bar," he
went on. " Now, look at this wall ; you
will see the peacocks' feathers jumping up
and. down; if anybody is within reach
they will feel the light touch of ghostly
fingers on their cheeks. Very fine busi-
ness this, for a spectre in a country
house."
In fact, this happened as he had fore-
told.
" Ghostly fingers, Jack," said George
to the joint authors of the " Narrative."
" Next bells and drums."
They began ; George pushed aside two
panels and showed a bell ringing in each,
and a small kettle -drum being beaten in
each. The drum -sticks were attached to
the frame of the drum by hinges and
were worked by some unknown ma-
.
" Very fair business that," said. George.
" These are your church bells, Jack, ring-
ing a regular peal. Two little handbells,
ladies and gentlemen. Next, the sighing
and sobbing, with the cold breath."
It was a quarter of an hour before he
finished, and already past 5 o'clock. He
rubbed his hands with the greatest satis-
faction. " This," he said, " is the best
day's work I have ever done."
Then he opened the door and stepped
out.
e e Holy Moses 1" he cried, surprised into
an exclamation which cannot be justified,
and yet must be considered pardonable
Winn one has to tell what he saw.
Now, it came to pass that, just as the
bell.; began to ring in the haunted cham-
ber, Laura herself, accompanied by one
of the brido's-maids, passed by the door.
What was her terror and astonishment to
hear the dread sound, only heard. by her-
self, begin again ! " He calls mei" she
cried, grasping her friend by the arm.
"He calls me ! I must go!"
She rushed to the door, but could not
open it.
" Can it be," she gasped, " that there
is some one in the room ? Is it Jack ?
Oh, Katie. run, run to my father—he is
in the library—tell flim to bring the key.
. . Ah ! it is in the lock—tell him to
come -to come quickly!"
" Gad," he cried, " it's real bones—
with wires in the joints—real ribs -and"
—here he laughed aloud-" they are all
hanging by strings 1"
He contemplated this phenomenon with
curiosity, but no terror.
Then the lower panels of the wall be-
side him opened, and there came out the
figure of a'man.
" Aha 1" said George,' " here is the an-
cestor ! How are you, old boy ?"
The figure was dressed in a long dress-
ing gown, and had on cilli* stoekings and
old-fashioned knee-breseh.es. The knees
were bent and the figure stepping, and as
it moved slowly and by jerks, ib seemed
to be on the point of falling to pieces,
George stopped in front of it and began
calmly to feel and punch it.
"You're stuffed with sawdust," he
said, contemptuously, and you are
dropping to bits, and the moths have got
into your poor olrl sleeve; and the white
wool is falling off your poor old Irate, and
your mask is hanging by a thread. You
an ancestor ! You ridiculous old 11ltr !"
The miserable ghost made no reply,
but continued ite journey across the room.
When he reached the opposite wall the
panel opened to admit him, and he div-
appeared,
" This is the ancestor 1" said George,
in great enjoyment, '° t Shutt*, you Antill.'
your dancing, you poor old skeletons !
Nobody caro about you. This is the
benevolent ancestor C This is hie bener
On being awakened, Mr. Membling ac-
knowledged that he had lent the key to
George Dalmahoy, and followed the
bride's -maid to the door. By this time
the greater part of the guests were assem-
bled on the spot, grouped round Laura,
who stood gazing at the door, her hand
cla suing the faithful Jack's. The bells
were certainly ringing and the drums
beating; presently the sound of music
was hsard.
" Hush 1" said Laura. " It is the hea-
venly music; I hear the voices of those
who sing.>,
She sank on her knees ; the other's girls
followed her example; kneeling in asemi-
circle, reverential, but careful that their
drosses. lay in becoming folds. Au igno-
rant spectator might have thought that
they were rehearsing the ceremony of the
next day. Behind the kneeling girls
-stood some of the older ladies and ono or
two gentlemen, As for Jack, he stood,
Laura still holding his hand, visibly dis-
concerted. Ito had a round hatj''having
just come from a walk, and' when Laura
implored flim to kneel too, he compro-
mi:ad by putting his head in his hat.
They continued to kneel during the
whole time of the noises ; vetten they had
ceased, they heard a rapping and a ham-
mering,, So they went on kneeling,
though all were getting anxious to see.
what would cum.o'of it. And ib was into
this group that, George Dalmahoy plunged
when he opened the door and littered that
rude and irreverent interjection.
Laura shrieked; they all sprang to
their feet, Arid shrieked together like a
eborlts on the stage.
He opened another panel and disclosed
a great pair of bellows pointed directly to
the group of spectators. It began to
heave up and down slowly, with a noise
like a hollow groaning, and the cold air
was distinctly felt. " The sigh of the
grave and the breath of the tomb," said
George, again quoting from the "Narra-
tive." "You will next, ladies and gen-
tlemen, observe—ah, there it is "—for
then the partition fell back-" now the
skeletons." Here they appeared, and
they really seemed to dance as if they had
no heart left for the work, and were quite
ashamed of themselves. " Three of them

Jack ?" He did not continue the extract
from . the t e Narrative," because Laura
was staring straight before her, an angry
light in her eyes and a flush upon her
cheek.
"Next," he went on, " we have the an-
cestor himself." In fact, at that mo-
ment the ,poor old doddering f gore came
out; he looked so palpably a stuffed doll
in the'machine, his face was so evidently
a mask, his hair was. so certainly white
wool, his knees were so groggy with loss
of sawdust, and his whole appearance was
so inexpressibly moth-eaten, shabby and
woe -begone, that it was impossible to re-
sist laughing at him. Everybody laugh-
ed, including the Squire, though he felt
sadly that the laugh was going to 'turn
against himself, There were two exeep-
Mons : Lama dict not latigh, she looked
on in icy wrath and shame ; and Jack

laughed at that moment Laura woiticl

A French Boy's English Essay.
An English university magazine prints
the following essay on " A Summer Holi-
day," written by a French pupil in an
English school : " The time which I was
spending to accomplish that journey was
eight hours, by express train, starting
from the Montparnais station. This road
is a very pleasant ons, and without ac-
count the numerous towns which the y eo-
ples are going so often are : Baths, swim,
the immensity of the large space occupy
with that water, and so wonderful aspect,
chiefly when we are seeing that for the
first time ; the great many steamers,
sailers, fishing boats, moving to the sea
with a astonishing easiness. the fishes of
all kinds took each day by the fishermen,
along the shore, and the games such as
Croquet, law tennis, cards and many oth-
ers, when the tide begin to go away. In
that place it begin at 2 o'clock to 5, and
then the place which it was occupying
before is full of people amusing them-
selves, and the children carrying their
things, begin to make many sand moue
tains, among herselves, seeing with a
great joice the pleasure which occupe
their children. When the weather is
clear and the sky without any clouds,
they let a boat and sail along a little dis
tance, walking here and there, fishing in
the rocks the lobster putting their breehes
on the knees in order do not make their
feet wet, and when the dusk begin to
fall, they start from the seashore and en-
tering in the houses or hotels, disolate
about the pleasure of the day. Oh ! then
how they find themselves happy in these
hours of peace always thinking to the
pleasure, they do not doubt at all the
kinds of sorrow in this short life, and do
not thing no more to the poor people,
whom has not so much good, in order to
rejoice himself as- well as these fortunate
travelees making every year the same
thing in order to preserve their own
health in breathing the well doing air of
the sea. which gives appetite, strength.
and finally making their own desir
execution, that is to say their own well-
being."

"How very strange."
