Excerpt from True Irish Ghost Stories As the number of clergy in the above village who deal in ghost stories is strictly limited, the Post Otfice succeeded in deliver ing it safely. I wrote at once in reply, and got a story. In a letter bearing the Dublin postmark a correspondent, veiled in anony mity, sent me a religious tract with the curt note, Re ghost stories, will you please read this. I did so, but still fail to see the sender's point of view. Another person in a neighbouring parish declared that if I were their rector they would forthwith leave my church, and attend service else where. There are many, I fear, who adopt this attitude; but it will soon become out of date. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
