A
modern Ghost Story with a Natural 'Buil
[Written for the New Orleans-Pioayune.1
Some people harbor a prejudice against
ghosts, mysterious rappiuge and spiritual
inanifeabatiore of any sort ; these, like Bun.
da, in Sir Wolter Sculls, Pirate,'' don't
belit'ive in but are afraid of them ; others,
like Minna, believe but do not fear, and
othere again laugh at anything of the ghost-
ly kind ae the moat arranttooliehnees, coined
espeoially to furnish plots for children's
tales, to which no sensible, phlosophioal
'} person in this enlightened nineteenth cen-
tury would give a moment's serious eon-
sideration. Charles Dameron, M. D., it
must be said, rather belonged to this latter
class. A hardworking, fast rising young
physician, he was as levelheaded a man
as ever lived, with no nonsense about him,
and yet nob one of those dlsagreeablea who
would mold the whole world after his own
fashion, and not too clever to tolerate and
even enjoy nonsense in other people. He
had never been hi love bub once in his life
and passed through it as other persons pass
through the mumps. It had not hurt him
much, tine since that time he was nob in.
olined to regard every woman he met in the
light of a walking sage'.
Ib was one night in Jane, after au unusu-
ally hard day's work, that Dr. Dameron had
the experience I am about to relate, an 'ex-
perienoe he hasenever accountedfor as long
as he lived, bub "mush simply place in the
list headed, "Inexplainable." He retired
that eventful night, giving orders that noth-
ing, not even a call from the dead, should be
allowed to disturb hie slumbers. A couch

his head touched the pillow than ha was
asleep, That was at 11 :30 °retook, and ibis
nob probable that he had aleph more than
three hours when he awoke all of a sudden,
fanoying he had been called, but seeing no
one in the room turned over again, suppos-
ing he had dreamt it ; but there le Dame
again : "Doctor 1 Doobor Dameron,' for
heaven's sake help me 1" He half sat up with
an impatient exclamation on hie lips, and
saw in the dim light of hie room a woman
standing half -way between his bed . and the
door. She eeemed to be dressed in sone•
thing white, with a shawl muffled about her.
The material that airily enveloped her head
was lace. He could see her face perfectly
well as the light from the window fell direot-
ly, upon it, and noticed that she was pretty
and clank eyed, bub very pale and anxious
looking. ; lb takes a good deal to surprise a
dootor, so this one really felt more annoy-
ance than amaz.ment at eight of hie femin
ine visitor,' and if he supposed anything it
was that being denied admittance, she had
forced her way to his room to importune aid
for some sick relative or friend.
"What is it you wish ?" he asked, not too
amiably.
"Doctor," said a most animating voioe,
"my sister, Hilda Stratton, is ill. She lives
at 1222 West Fourteenth street. For

"My good woman—girl it is impossible!
I am not well myselt and worn out; I can't
go anywhere to -night ; you must get some
one else 1"
" But in the meantime she may die."
There was positive anguish in her voice now
and her race looked ghastly white and sad.
"For heaven's sake, don't refuse me ! Go to
her, if you are human ; go to her I"
It was ourf..ns that she used the word "go"
instead of "come,"; ae most persons ` would
have done ; but )r. Dameron thought the
strong excitement she labored under caused
her to disregard grammar. He groaned
aloud, for there was no resisting her despair.

"Well, if she is as sick as all that there's no
help for me, I suppose 1 Go on and I'll follow,
or you can wait for me down �etaire as it
can't be pleasant walking the streets alone
this time of night."
He heard a faintly uttered " Thank
God l'' Then before be knew it, she was
out of the room, leaving so noiselessly that
Dr. Dameron did not even hear the door close
behind her or the sound of her retreating
footsteps.
He dressed in a hurry and went down
stairs expecting to find her waiting for him
In the hall, bub to his astonishment she was
nob there. ;Neither was there any sign of
her to be seen on the street in either direc-
tion. " Little idiot 1'' he said. " I'suppose
she misunderstood me." However, he found.
the house, whioh was not more than three
or four blocks away, without any difficulty
and gave the door bell a resounding peal
wondering why on earth the woman had not
waited there for him, at any rate, so as to
let him in but as no one name he concluded
that Iiomust have reaohea the house before
her, whiohwas certainly queer. Finally,
after two more peals, the sound of shuffling
footsteps was heard and a sleepy eyed old
woman, holding alofb a Dandle, opened to
him with rather a dubious air, as if he might
be a highwayman for all she knew.

" The dootor 1 .I have come to see the

in exasperation, eteppiog inside the door as
she showed signs of shooting it in his: face.

in great surprise.

kindling indignantly.
"That is just what I intenddoing, if you
will kindly show me the way 1"
ho retorted.
They marched up the etairs, the old lady
leading with her candle. ;Arrived on the
second floor Elbe stood still and stiffly point-
ed to a door. " there's their room 1 They
always keep a lighe burning at night."
Dr. Dameron held up hie hand with a
gesture of silence. From behind the closed
door oarne sounds like moans, faint but very
penetrating. The olid lady changed�oolor.
"Maybe she is siok, oho mattered, but
it's strange they told mo nothing of it."
"Are you, their landlady ?' asked the
doctor, He was et bac dour trying to open

young things 1" The door was looked; so
she went wand by another entrance to open
it for him':

His self bier 'ogatione were interrupted
ho wever, by t: opening of the door. " I'm
arrald she's mighty sick,"eaid'the landlady.
Tiny were in a large room, lighted by a
night lamp placed on the floor. Nrom a
bed at one end came filo sounds they had
heard outside ; near it was a little cot in
whioh a child lay sound asleep undieturbed
by the half unconscious groan of its room-
mate. The dootor approached his patient ;
she was lying with closed eyes, her hair
tumbled in great disorder over the pillow,
her breath coming in panting gasps from
her parted lips, and her oheoku crimson
with fever. As he name near her she opened
her eyes ; they were brilliant with the same
light that painted her (Menke red ; she
knew nothing, evidently saw nothing, bub
moaned unceasingly. Dr. Dameron eaw
that he had a very siok girl to deal with
and turned sharply to his oompenion who
was looking dismayed.
" Where le her sister ?" he demanded.
"Why don't she come to her ?"
" There she is, asleep, sir," said the wo-
man, pointing to the orib where the child of
ten years or so lay. "Nonsense, not that
child, of course not 1 Her other sister I'm
balking about." She looked bewildered
" She has no other sister here, sir, she and
little Nan live all alone."
Dr. Dameron was completely staggered and
conoluded that the old woman muse be crazy,

that on some subjects at least she retaired
her senses. For one thing she was a most
efficient and kind-hearted nurse and rainy.
ed him greatly of the burden of responsi-
bility thrown upon him so suddenly. To-
gether they worked on Hilda Stratton in her
sudden illness.
Mrs. West, for that was the landlady's
name, said she had been alightly atliug fox
some days, and she supposed had overworked
herself, for pretty Hilda was a musics teach•
er, and With her earnings surest entirely
supported her little slater and herself. They
were orphans. Mrs. West had lived in their
family for many years as housekeeper, for
as she said they had nothing, Ps a emelt
life annuity . had died with their mother's
death just a year before. There' was another
sister older than Hilda living in; New York,
but in Se. Louis' the two girls had no living
relative. This much Dr. Dameron ' found
out, though there was libble time for talk-
ing.
He did what he could for the girl to whose
bedside he had been galled in so mysterious
a mannerand did not leave her .until "break
of day when she was Bleeping, with Mrs.
West to watch over her. ' Then he returned
to hie home a perplexed and weary man.
In the solitude of his own room he tried
in vain to solve the question : Who was
the girl who had entered his room and en
treated him to , go to her "sister," when
Hilda Stratton's only grown sister was
miles and ranee away from her.
Whoever the woman was, how did she
get inside the house and his room and out
again without being seen or, heard, for the
servants positively denied all knowledge of
her visit. The doors werelooked and bolt.
ed for the night, and the cffine•man swore
he had not let a soul in the house after .his.
master retired, and had nob been called to
the bell:onoe during the night. Dr. Dem-
me wondered
ame-ronwondered at himself for not having felt
more surprise when he saw the wdmandin
his room, forib was nob a usual thing for
people to precipitate themselves upon him
in that fashion even if their nearest relatives
were dying.
He recalled the girl's white fame with her
dark shining . eyes, the softly, modulated
tones of her voice; and suddenly remember.
ed with a disagreeable libble thrill, how
suddenly and noiselessly she had left the
room ; why, he did not even remember see.
ing the door open and; close behind her 1
Well, there was nobhing to dobut aooept
the affair for what it was, , a mystery; and
though.Cuarles Dameron bad nob a grain of
superstition about him and was a scoffer at
all such things, he was forced - to admit
against his own belief and j sdgment : that
this little affair had something of an uncanny
aapecb about it. But even mysteries be
thought could be analyzed, and this he was
determined to Rife to the very bottom when
the proper moment came.
Hilda Stratton was ill unto death and her
little sister Nannie implored that Irene,, the
absent sister, should be sent for.:Mrs. West
also said "if anything happened.. to Mise
Hilda ib would dine Miss Irene mad with
grief," and she thought the latter should
certainly be telegraphed to oome at once "if
the dootor thought there was real danger."
The dootor thought the danger so very real
that he seat the dispatoh the day after Hilda
was taken and Irene Stratton reading it in
that far off city thought her heart must
break with anguish and suspense before she
could reach the sister dearer to her than her
own life. And in the time thea intervened
before her arrival Charles Dameron thought
t3
much of a face with dark appealing eyes and
fought the battle of life for hie young pati nt
right manfully, nob only from a natural
human sympathy, but far that absent
sister's sake, the sister who. would " go mad
with grief " if anything happened to Hilda,
She game at last, and : though ;Hilda had
moaned for her incessantly, she knew her no
more than she had known Nannie' or Mre.
Rest, and still cried for "Irene, Irene 1"
When Dr. Dameron first saw her, she was
kneeling by Hilda's bed, her fade buried in
her hands, for she was praying for thatdear
life. And when she lifted that face to him—
Charles Dameron fele a strange secret thrill,
nob of surprise, for in his soul he felt it all
along,but a thrill of recognition 1 Yee ; there
was the same ,pale, pretty face, the anxiety
on ib deepened to actual dread ; the dark
beseeching eyes tbab had haunted him, and
when she spoke in earnest, grateful words its
was the same voioe he had heard before—
the voice summoning him to the aid of her
young sieter. 1
But this peculiar recognition was on his
tide alone. She greeted him warmly,
gratefully,for Mrs. Wosb and Nannie had
told her of his kindness and attention to
Hilda, but not with the faintest symptom of
ever having seen him before •; and so he kept
hie secret, for a time at least. It was many
a weary day and night before Hintz was out
of danger, and In all that time Dr. Dameron'
was untiring in his care and attention, and
what wonder is it that he won more than
gratitude from Irene Stratton by that tender
devotion to her dear one, and they wore
much thrown together in that bimo'of dtoad
and trial for Irene.
One night she told him something that he
had wanted to know for a long time, for he
had often wondered if she had had any un-
usual experience on that night when Hilda
was taken ill; a presentiment, or forewarn-
ing, or something to coincide with her ap•
p'eranoe or seeming appearance in his room.
It wad towards the end of Hilda's iltneae,
and she was lying in a deep, 'dret.mleae

ewe,.
" Wali, what was the dream?" 4,,,
She paused silently. "I am afraid you
will think me so silly to give it a thought t"
"Ladeed, I will not. Pray tell me what
it was ?"
"Well, I did not fall asleep that night
for ever so long, worrying, T suppose, over
Hilda's silence and—other things, and I
don't remember when I did go to sleep. For
my dream, if dream it was, was so vivid I
felt as if I was awake all the time. I
thought I heard Hitch's voioe moaning
aloud in great pain and distress ; ib seemed)
as if ehe was trying to call sono one and
could not do it I tried hard to get to her,
but there was an in -mineable barrier between
US ; the groans grew more distinct and then
I thought I saw her, as ib were, at a great
distance lying on a bed, flushed with fever
and raging in delirium, and altalone, with-
out a soul to help her. I do net know where
I was when I saw this, but all around me
monied to be dark and only a faint,' pale
light game from Hilda's room. It seemed to
me that I soreemed aloud in my anguish and
utter helplessness : 'God send some one to
her 1 Help her 1 Help her 1' - The light of
Hilda'a room faded away and i was etand-
ing in a large, dark chamber. I could jast
make out the outlines of a bed and some one,
lying on it. I had a confused idea that
there I was to find aid for Hilda and heard
myself crying out : 'Help 1 for Heaven's
sake help me 1 My sister is i11 1 for .God's
Bake go to her 1"' Dr Dameron, started
visibly at this, for that appeal, couched ' in
those very words, was familiar to his ears.
" Well, what else?' he asked breathlessly.
"There was very little else. I had a vague
assurance of ald and comfort—though that
was dim and confused as dreams often are.
But a strange thing about it was : that when
1 awoke I was standing in the middle of the
floor, the tears streaming down, my face, and
yet even in my sorrow 1 felt a sense of oom-
forb in the firm conviction that God would
send aid to Hilda if she weeded in just as if
I had been told so." Dr. Dameron 'wae.
strangely moved by the girl's ;story ; it ball•
led so exactly' with what had occurred that
night that there"ooald be no mistake about
it tallied so exactly with what had occurred
that night that there could be no mistake
about it. Irene Stratton' was in New York,
he in St. Louis on a certain night in Jane,
and yet notwibhatanding'the miles that se-
parates them, she had appeared to him and
had implored him in moving terms to go to
her sister, who; waa lying at the point of
death. That sheshould have left Hilda's
condition was not so remarkable, for won-
derful love aompaeaeth all things and leaps
with unknown speed o'er barriers of seem-
ingly impassable space. Bat how she appear.
ed to Dr. Dameron was not to be known.
Sitting with her that night he told her all;
of the strange summons he had had, and how
he arose, dressed and went in all haste to
the very house she had designated, of his
incredulous amszsment when told that
Hilda'a sister was far' away,and then of hie
recognition of herself and conviction" that
what he had seen and heard was not a dream
but sober truth.
She listened in deep attention and awed
eilanoe until the very end, then'' said : "It
was not a dream or delusion. I am sure.thet
in the fearful aut'uisle of that moment my
spirit lefts the flesh and went to you for help.
There is notbine .strange to me in this. I
cried to Gad for help and he helped me in
that way, by sending mo to you. Men do
nob know of what the untrammeled soulis
capable. My body slept, bub I am certain
my soul was with Hilda that night I"
What was there to say to this ? and
whab could D. Dameron believe save that
her solution of the mystery must be the one
nearest approaching the truth, in spite of all
ecientffio scoffers and 'skeptics may say to
the contrary Y
It must have been intended that the two
who first met so strangely should wield an
unoommon influence over each other's lives,
and viewed in this light there was only one
ehiog to be done to save himself from a repe-
tition of suchspiritual visits, and itwas nob
more than sixweeks or so before Irene gave
a blushing consent to this plan of Dr Dame-
ron's, which was of course the old, old plan
of making two lives one by a, ib is to be
hoped, happy marriage, with whioh ended
At. Dameron's strange experience.
