know。〃 

     〃I   think   so;   too;〃   he   answered;   〃but   you   evidently   don't。 Now   you 

come along indoors with me; and don't let's have any more of it。〃 

     Uncle   John   came   to   the   door   at   this   point;   having   been   awaked;   I 

suppose;      by   the  altercation;    and;   at  the   same    moment;      Aunt    Maria 

appeared at the window in her nightcap。 

     I   explained   the   constable's   mistake   to   them;   treating   the   matter   as 

lightly as I could; so as not to get the man into trouble; and I turned for 

confirmation to the ghost。 

     He was gone!        He had left me without a wordwithout even saying 

good…bye! 

     It struck me as so unkind; his having gone off in that way; that I burst 

into tears; and Uncle John came out; and led me back into the house。 

     On reaching my room; I discovered that Jones was right。                    I had not 

put on my trousers; after all。         They were still hanging over the bed…rail。 

I   suppose;   in   my   anxiety   not   to   keep   the   ghost   waiting;   I   must   have 

forgotten them。 

     Such are the plain facts of the case; out of which it must; doubtless; to 

the healthy; charitable mind appear impossible that calumny could spring。 

     But it has。 

     PersonsI      say    'persons'have      professed     themselves       unable    to 

understand the simple circumstances herein narrated; except in the light of 

explanations at once misleading and insulting。               Slurs have been cast and 

aspersions made on me by those of my own flesh and blood。 

     But   I  bear   no   ill…feeling。   I  merely;   as   I   have  said;   set  forth  this 

statement      for   the  purpose     of   clearing    my    character    from    injurious 

suspicion。 



                                               33
