A GHOST FINDS A WILL.
AND THEN STRAIGHTENS UP A
WRONG OF OTHER YEARS.
The Startling Experience of a New
York Lawyer—A Story Which Will
Interest Lovers of the Marvelous.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer,
New York, Oct. 22.—Stories of the
supernatural are just now in fashion.
Almost everyone is interested in reading of
remarkable spiritual manifestations, yet
few persons who listen to such narratives
are willing to give them the credence de
served. It should not seem remarkable to
any thinking person who acknowledges the
truth of Scripture and the evidence of na
ture herself that there is a spirit world, and
that the immortal spirit still lives for a
while, after leaving the body, to hover
around the friends it loves while in the
flesh. Especially it is not remarkable that
the spirits of parents still love and take an
interest in the welfare of their children, and
even manifest themselves, or material
ize, to comfort or help those whose existence
they must ever feel responsible for. The
following story was related to a correspon
dent of the Enquirer by a well-known law
yer, who would certainly be the very last
person to misrepresent facts or coin a ghost
story. It may be taken literally, for there
can be no doubt of its truth, coming as it
does from a person whose mind was incapa
ble of prejudice, and who, before the occur
rence of this episode, was a disbeliever in
Spiritualism, his present opinion of which
is "that there are still many things in na
ture for us to learn more about, and this
SPIRITUALISM
is one of them.”
The following is his story:
“About three months ago my client, Mr.
J., died very suddenly. After his death
search was made for his will and life insur
ance policy. I knew he had drawn up a
new will just previous to his death; but, as
he had been a lawyer himself, he had drawn
it with his.own hand, and had not told me
its contents any further than to tell me be
fore he drew it up that he intended to divide
his property equally between his two chil
dren, a son by his first wife and an infant
daughter by his second wife. He was a
widower, his second wife having died in
giving birth to the little girl After his
death the new will was not to be found, and
the only evidence of its existence was what
he had told me, and the affirmation of his
son. who was one of the witnesses.
“The other witness, who was a brother of
the deceased, had died a few days before
him, and, in fact, it was thought by the
family physician that the excitement and
grief of my client, caused by the de th of
his brother, had caused the fit of apoplexy
which terminated his life. Had my client
left no will at all the case would not have
been so bad, for then the law would have
made an equitable division of the property
between the heirs; but, unfortunately, he
had made a will at the time of his second
marriage “cutting off his son with a shil
ling,” or, rather, cutting him off with SIOO.
The latter will was found. By it the second
wife and her heirs, or her children, should
she have any before his death, were devised
the whole of the estate; and a brother of
bers and myself were made executors.
Both of the witnesses were alive, and every
part of the will was uuassailable by law.
The reason of
THIS INJUSTICE
had been the opposition of the son, who
was 20 years of age at the time, to his
father's second marriage; after which event
the son went to Eurojjp and remained abroad
until the second wife died, when his father
sent for him and they were reconciled, and
the new will made. The estate was very
large. It consisted of several hundred thou
sand dollars in real estate and manufactur
ing property, chiefly in a New England
town, where the family homestead was sit
uated, aim also of a large life insurance pol
icy, which could not be found, and was
probably in the same envelope as the lost
will. Of course nothing could be done but
execute the former will. The Surrogate
was appealed to by the son, but could do
nothing, as the son was the only witness of
the lost will living, and at the same time the
most interested person. Besides the brother
of my client’s second wile was determined
that his infant niece should have her fullest
rights under the will produced, and the
young man had to be satisfied with his SIOO
and the right to his mother’s dowry, which
was left to her hems by the will of which 1
have spoken.
“One morning while I was sitting in my
office here in the Mills’ building, William
entered. He was the young man who I
have spoken of as the son by the former
marriage, and 00-heir under the lost will.
He is a fine fellow, and I felt keenly the in
justice which I, as an executor of the stand
ing will, had to carry out against him. He
said: ‘Judge, a very remarkable thing hap
pened to me last night. After 1 had turned
out the gas and was getting into bed, I was
SHOCKED AND HORRIFIED
to see my father open the* curtains of my
window, and enter the room from the bal
cony. As he threw aside the curtains I
could see the moonlight shining clear
through him, and he did not cast the least
shadow on the floor. As lam not naturally
nervous, I could scarcely believe my eyes,
so I stood perfectly still and he advanced
into the room, leaving the curtains opened
and the moonlight streaming in. When he
had .reached me he raised his hand and laid
it on my shoulder. Then I spoke “Father is
this you ?”
“ ‘Yes, William,” he answered, “I have
come to tell you where you can find my last
will, which will give you justice. It is in
my safe, in our house in A., where I
went just before my death to bring my sick
and now dead brother, your Uncle John,
back to this city,thinking I would return at
once and bring back the will. I left it there
for safety. I had taken it there to show my
old friend D., who read it and w ill attest
that the instrument which you will find is
the true will; and with the will is my life
insurance policy. (Jo and tell my lawyer,
Judge R., what I have told you, and ask
him to go with you to A. on Wednesday. I
will meet you both there. And now, my
son, let me say this: Never do an act in
haste that may prove an injustice.
THE UNJUST DEAD CANNOT REST.”
“ ‘After saying this ho vanished through
the window as lie had come, leaving the
curtains down and the moon still shining in
with a ghastly light. I lit the gas at once
and closed the wmdow, and have not slept
since. Will you go to A. on Wednesday
next! What ,clo you think of it alii’ He
ceased speaking, and having hoard him
through without interruption, I said that I
should either think he had been drinking or
had been reading some book on ghosts, and
then had fallen asleep, and awakening had
found himself standing in the room with
the curtains drawn, having dreamed the
ghost scene and arisen in his sleep. Such
was my theory, but he resented it, though
he admitted that it might be true, as he had
been thinking very closely of late on his
father’s death and his own fortunes.
“Well, I agreed, after a few moments’ re
flection, to go to A. on the following
Wednesday. I had business there, anyway,
and should be able to transact it, and, if
nothing happened further, it would not be
time lost. Accordingly, Wednesday found
William and myself in the old homestead at
A. Tiie house was one of those old shingle
palaces such as our Yankee forefathers were
so fond of building It stood on a knob
like hill overlooking the village, and its
gainbrel-roof gables looked rather pictur
esque rising out of a wilderness of gnarled
oak tree tops. No one hail lived in the
house since Mr. J.’s second marriage, at
which time he had moved to New York;
but the house was furnished and ready for
(ho old gentleman any time he might come
to A. on business and wish to remain for a
few days. In a smaller house, or cabin,
near by, lived an old negro and his wife,
who were servants to the family and had
the care of the house. We got the keys and
entered. It was evening. At the door of
the old man’s office what was our surprise
and my
UNPARALLELED ASTONISHMENT
to be met by Mr. J.: Yes, there was my
old client in his dressing gown and slippers,
just as natural as could lie; and the lamp
light which I carried did not make him look
the least bit ghostly. My hair raised on end,
and a cold chill crept up my spine, and
made my teeth chatter. ‘ Wall, I never!’ I
said. ‘I told you so,’ said William, who did
not seem in the least afraid. The old man
advanced tolueet us, and laid his hand in
mine to be shaken. It felt cool but sub
stantial ; he shook hands with William also.
Then he said to me, ‘I suppose John, you
w-ho were one of my pall-bearers only a few
months ago are rather overcome with meet
ing me, but you have nothing to fear, surely;
were you Dr. D. who did not bleed me quick
enough, you might have more cause to trem
ble. I will tell you this though, tor the oc
casion seems to need some explanation. My
son William is a natural medium of wonder
ful jwwer. It is by his wonderful, though
unconscious strength that I can appear to
you here. Now, as our time is short, let’s
to work.
“The safe was then opened, and wonder
ful to relate, the missing will and insurance
policy were both found! Then we three
talked several hours, I should think, during
which the negro woman entered the room
and seeing her old master shrieked with
terror and fled. After a while I noticed the
buttons in thb back of the large upholstered
chair in which the ghostly F. was sitting
through his body, and in'a few moments
more all of him had melted into air but his
hand, which still clung to his son William’s
hand, and at length that disappeared also.
“My astonishment knew no bounds.
There' was nothing but positive proof that I
had seen and talked with a ghost, and the
will which proved to be the lost one, as I
have said, was there to prove all!
“Well, the new will is now being proved,
although the ghost story has not been told
before the court, and without the negro
woman has spread it, as she probably has in
A., it is unknown to the world. Could any
ghost story be more remarkable! I don’t
know yet what to think about it.”
Such is the story. What do the Enquirer
readers think about it?
MADE OUT OF MISERY.
Dollars That Mark Sad Down Steps on
the Down-bill Road.
From the New York Tribune.
A pawnbroker was busily engaged yester
day afternoon looking through his books in
his shop on the Bowery, near Hester street.
One of Inspector Byrnes’ detectives stood
at his elbow, looking over the book also.
The detective was looking for some stolen
property, which ha had been informed had
been “planted” in this place. While they
were running over the items, there was a
sharp ring at the office door-bell, and a
woman walked slowly to the counter. Her
clothes were a faded black and torn in
places. There was nothing but sadness in
the pinched lines in her face, and her
emaciated body and trembling hands told a
story of woe and misery louder than words.
She started back a pace or two as the pawn
broker stepped nimbly in front of herTrom
behind his desk, as if half inclined to get
away from the place altogether. There
were tears in her eyes when she went back
to the counter, and she turned her face
partly around from the pawnbroker, to hide
ner emotion. There is little sentiment in
the pawnbroker’s heart and he tapped ner
vously on the counter, waiting for the
woman to say or do something. After a
moment’s mental struggle, she took a heavy
gold ring from her finger, and pushed it to
ward the money lender. It was her wed
ding ring. The pawnbroker examined the
ring closely, weighed it and tested its quali
ty with acid. Being satisfied that it was
genuine, he laid $2 and a ticket on the
counter. He did not ask the woman’s name;
she had been to see him before. She
clutched the money quickly and hurried
away, trying vainly to keep back the sobs
that welled up into her throat.
“Well, that’s the end of her,” said the
pawnbroker, as the smile of Shylock spread
over her face, and raised wrinkles on his
bald head. (■
“W T hat do you mean?” he was asked.
“It means that I’ve lost her trade, and
will probably never see her again. No
matter how hard the luck a woman is in,
the last thing to go is the wedding ring.
Her husband may have been a worthless
scoundrel, but she will stick to the ring un
til there is nothing else to pawn. A pawn
broker is a constant witness of the decline
of the human race, or, at least, a certain
portion of it. Watching the slow inarch
irom wealth to poverry is his daily amuse
ment. Tane the case of this woman. It is
a typical one. She came hei e first about two
years ago. She was then gay, well-dressed,
and had diamonds in her ears and on her
fingers. She threw off a diamond ring
with a careless air, and asked for a loan, ex
plaining that it was only a temporary af
fair, and that she would be in a few days
and redeem it. She came back again, not
to redeem, but to pledge more of her prop
erty. She kept coming from time to time,
until now, when all her jeweltry and clothing
of any value is in pawn. I’ve watched this
tiling thousand of times in my 40 years’ ex
perience, and it’s an old story.”
“What leads people to pawn their prop
erty?”
“In ninety nine out of 100 cases rum and
opium. If it were not for these thing pawn
brokers would walk the whole year round
and have little fat on their ribs. The liquor
dealer is the pawnbroker’s best friend.
A loan rarely exceeds one-third the market
able value of the goods. It is a rare thing
for women to redeem goods. Men sometimes
do when the property is valuable or what is
oftener the case, they sell the ticket to some
friend, who redeems the .goods because he
usally gets a bargain, .Some people have a
passion for pawning things. There is no ne
cesity for them to do so, but it comes from
an eccentric mental condition, such as is
found in a kleptomaniac, and they cannot
help it.”
“Do you have many visits from thieves
with stolen goods?”
“Not as many as is commonely supposed.
We have our eyes open all the time for
stolen goods, as it is not pleasant to have
the reputation of keeping a -“fence.” The
pawnbroker is an adjunct of the detective
office and frequently gives evidence which
leads to the detection of thieves. It has
been done so often that thieves look with
suspicion on a pawnbroker, and when they
have any goods to dispose of, usually melt
them for old gold or silver, or take them to
another city and pawn them. Not a day
passes that an attempt is not made to swin
dle the pawnbroker by trying to get a loan
on some valueless stuff. It is not often that
we get caught, because we have a test
for everything. A pawnbroker has to have
a good k owledge of values, both of new
and second-hand goods, in order to get ail
there is in a bargain. It is hard sometimes
to hear a poor wretch begging for a few
more pennies advance on a loan, but it’s
not bard to refuse when it is remembered
that the less money these people have the
better they are off. Take it at the best, a
pawnshop is a gloomy place, and it only
shows the unpleasant side of human na
ture. "
“Is there any money in the business?”
“Upon every package in a pawnshop is
written ‘M. M ’ I his is usually taken to
mean misery and money, and it’s safe to say
that the pawner gets the misery and the
pawnbroker the money. I challenge you to
find a starvi ig pawnbroker in the city.
There is no business in which thore is so
much money inode on the capital invested.
It is all profit. There can be no losses, as
for every dollar put on there are $3 pledged.”
