A\ AWFCL MISTAKE.
From the San Francisco Aivon#t
Manx year? ago, lone before the days
cf railways, there stood in the remote dis
trict of the Kast Riding of Yorkshire a
laiyv, rambling. tom-down building,
which was used at the time 1 sjeak of as
an inn. Why such an out-of-the-way
■pot had been selected for a home no one
ever pretended to guess. But certain it
was that the owner had ex|>ended all his
available means in its erection, and hud
toiled and starved, and finally died of a
broken heart, his utter want of practical
training totally unfitting him from
wrestling a living from the barren hill
sides which lie had selected for a home.
, His wife soon followed him to the grave
and tits children scattered, no one knew
where. And thus it was that the once
pretentious mansion went to decay for
want of a tenant, and would have rotted
to the ground had not the spirit of im
provement and enterprise finally invaded
the region in search of hidden treasures
of coal.
When 1 visited the spot a small village
hafl sprung up around the old house,
which had been taken possession of, ana
the few rooms not utterly ruined by de
cay had been converted into a so-called
tavern.
The landlord might have starved, how
ever, if he had depended on native custom,
for the old house, during those years of
solitude, had gained an unsavory reputa
tion. and. in the absence of other tenants,
many-tongued rumor had peopled it with
ghosts.
Its reputation had reached me before I
visited the place, but as 1 had always felt
an inexpressible longing to sleep in a
haunted room, and make the personal ac
quaintance of some of the dissatisfied den
izens of the other shore, 1 was not sorry
to learn that the haunted inn was the
only place in town where I could find a
resting place.
I was somewhat taken aback, however,
when the landlord informed me. in tones
of husky English and poor whisky, that
every bed and every room in the house
was full. I could not but admit the
eternal fitness of things, inasmuch as he
was full, too: but I begged him to set his
few remaining wits to work to see if he
could not find a i>eg for me to hang up
my tired bones upon. After a grave con
sultation with the landlady it was con
cluded that they could make me a shake
down if 1 did not mind sharing my room
with another gentleman, who had already
retired.
There was nothing for it but to accept
the situation, and I did so in good faith.
By the time the shakedown was com
pleted I had finished my sup|>er and an
nounced my desire to retire immediately*.
The landlord was by this time too far gone
to render any assistance and us the land
lady weighed not less than 800 pounds
avoirdupois I excused her from attendance
and acted as my own usher. She furnished
me with the remains of a tallow dip and
giving me a few general directions con
cerning the location of the room, bade me
good night.
I fortunately stumbled into the right
place, for a hasty glance revealed the
shakedown; but I had only just time,
however, to bolt the door when the light
went out, and it remained for the moon,
which shone brightly into the window, to
light me to bed. ana to reveal the loca
tion of the bed on which the stranger
slept.
lam not naturally nervous, but I con
fess that I xvould much rather have known
who my roommate was, and the thought
of what be might be kept me awake for
some time. To add to my nervousness,
the wind had risen, and it whistled
through the crooks and around the gabies
of the old mansion witli a weird and
mournful cadenco that was anything but
soothing to my tired and already over
wrought nerves.
As I lay there, the sounds momentarily
increased in hideousness. I thought of
all the stories I had heard of the cursed
Old rookery, and its I did so the sounds
appeared to my over-wrought imagination
more and more like the shrieks of the
damned, or the wail of a lost soul. I
finally became so nervous that I resolved
to arise and go below.
* But as I rose in ray !>ed for that purpose
I found myself subjected to anew source
of annoyance. The mocking wind, which
had appeared to me more than once to
syllable human sounds, eama at length
upon my ear, distinctly charged with
tones which could not bo mistaken. It
was the hard, suppressed breathing of a
man. I listened still, and it came anew,
stronger and more fully upon my ear. It
was like the thick respirations of an
apoplectic. Whence it proceeded I knew
not; but that it was near me 1 was cer
tain. A suspicion of robbery—possible
assassination—flashed upon me. but was
instantly discarded as foreign to the
people among whom I was traveling.
The moonlight now fell upon the cur
tained bed opposite to me, and I saw the
tattered drapery move, as if the frame
upon which it was suspended wore agi
tated. I watched, I confess, with more
peculiar feelings of interest. I was not
alarmed, but an unaccountable anxiety
crept over me.
At length the curtain parted, and a
naked human leg was protruded through
Its folds; the foot came with a dumb,
doad-like sound to the floor, resting there,
it seemed to me, at least half a minute
before the body to which it belonged was
disclosed to my view.
Slowly, then, a ptillid and unearthly
looking figure emerged from the couch,
and stood with its stark lineaments clearly
drawn against the dingy curtains behind
It. It appeared to be balancing itself for
a moment, and then begun to move along
from the bed. But there was something
horribly unnatural in its motions. Its
feet came to the floor with a dull, heavy
sound, as if there wus no vitality in them.
Its arms hung, apparently paralyzed, by
its sides, and the only nerve set rigidly in
the frame appeared above its brow. The
eyes were dilated and fixed, with an ex
pression of ghastly horror, and the petri
fied lipsuiox-ed natas the hideous moaning,
which came from the bottom of the chest,
escaped them.
It Degan to move across the floor in the
direction of my bed, its knees ut every
step being drawn up xvith a sudden jerk
to the body, and its feet coming to the
ground as if they were moved by sorrio
mechanical impulse and were wholly
wanting in the elasticity of living mem
bers.
It approached m.v bed and mingled hor
ror and curiosity kept me still. It came
and stood beside it, and childliko 1 clung
to my couch, moving only to the farther
aide. Slowly, and with the same un
natural footfalls, it pursued me thither,
and again I changed my position. It
placed itself then ut the foot of m.v bed,
and moved by its piteous groans I tried to
look calmly at it. I endeavored to rally
my thoughts—to reason with myself anil
even to speculate ujmn the nature of the
object before mo. One idea that went
through xny brain was too extravagant
not to remember. I thought among other
things that the phantom was a corpse,
animated for the moment by some gal
vanic process, in order to terrify me.
Then,‘us I recollected that there was no
one in the village to carry such a trick
into effect—supposing even the experi
ment possible—l rejected the supposition.
How, too, could those axvful moans be
produced from an inanimate being; And
yet it seemed as if ex’erything about it
wus dead, except the mere capability of
moving its feet and uttering those'un
earthly expressions of suffering. Tho
specter, however, if so it may be called,
gave me but Uttio opportunity for reflec
tion. Its ghastly limbs were raised anew
with the same automaton movement, and,
placing one of its feet upon the bottom of
my bed, while its glassy eyes were fixed
j steadily upon me, ft began slowly stalking
j toward a) pillow
1 confess that I was now in an agony of
terror. I sprang from the couch and fled
from the aiutrtmcnl The keensight<sl
ness of fear enabled me to disrover an
open closet upon the other side of the
hall Springing into it 1 closed the door
quickly alter me. It had neither lock
nor holt, but the closet was so narrow
that by placing my feet against the oppo
site wall 1 could brace back against the
door, so as to hold it against any human
assailant who had only bis arms for a
lever.
The perspiration of mortal fear started
upon my forehead as I heard the super
natural' tread of that strange visitant ap
prouvhink the It seemed ah age
before tlie measured steps brought it to
tho door.
It struck It; the blow was sullen and
hollow, as if dealt by the hand of a corpse
It was like the dull sound of its own fefft
upon the floor.
It struck the door again, and to my in
tense relief, the sound was more feeble
than before. Surely, I thought, the hand
of no living man could produce such a
sound.
I know not whether it struck again,
for now its thick breuthing became so
loud that even the moanings, which were
mingled with the respirations, became
inaudible.
At last its breathings subsided entirley,
becoming at first gradually weaker, and
then audiblo only in harsh, sudden sobs,
whose duration I could not estimate, from
their mingling with the blast which
swept the hillsides.
The last sound that I remember hear
ing was the most terrible of all—the
sound which once heard can never be
mistaken for any other—the death-rattle
in a human throat. It came with a hor
rible distinctness; it seemed in my very
ear. It appeared to me that the accumu
lated horrors of the whole night had been
concentrated in that sound—that audible
connection between life and death.
What might have been heard after that
I know not, for insensibility came to my
relief.
When I came to I knew that the morn
ing had come, and, scarcely knowing
whether or not it had been a hideous
dream, I arose, and opened the door.
What words can describe the awful
horror of that moment ; Before me stood
the specter, witli the full light of day re
vealing its revolting features in all their
hideous deformity. The face was swollen
and livid, the tongue protruded from the
mouth, and its eyes, bursting from their
sockets, glared at me and froze the blood
in my veins.
All this is impressed upon my mind
with a terrible distinctness, although the
view 1 had was instantaneous, for the,
next instant the apparition, whoso arms,
were extended forward, fell upon me and;
appeared to clasp me in a horrible em-|
brace.
I gave a wild shriek and fell, with the
ghastly thing upon me. 1
Once more insensibility came to my re
lief.
Therest of my story is soon told. The
household of the inn heard my' cry, rushed
into the hail and released me.
It was tho dead body of a guest of the
inn. He was afflicted with some organic
affection of the system, and was subject
to grievous fits of nightmure, during
which lie still preserved sufficient powers
of violation to move to tho bed of his
servant, who, being used to his attacks,
would take the necessary moans to re
lieve him. The servant had that night
remained out late, and when he returned
found his way in tho dark to the wrong
room and occupied the bed intended for
mo, while I had stumbled into the room
occupied by his mater, and got into the
servant's bed, The poor roan had fallen
a victim to his malady and my coward
ice.,
