The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·
Andrew Lang

Popular
opinion
is
strongly
in
favour
of
beasts
seeing
ghosts.
The
people
of
St.
Kilda,
according
to
Martin,
held
that
cows
shared
the
visions
of
second-sighted
milk-maids.
Horses
are
said
to
shy
on
the
scene
of
murders.
Scott's
horse
ran
away
(home)
when
Sir
Walter
saw
the
bogle
near
Ashiestiel.
In
a
case
given
later
the
dog
shut
up
in
a
room
full
of
unexplained
noises,
yelled
and
whined.
The
same
dog
(an
intimate
friend
of
my
own)
bristled
up
his
hair
and
growled
before
his
master
saw
the
Grey
Lady.
The
Rev.
J.
G.
Wood
gives
a
case
of
a
cat
which
nearly
went
mad
when
his
mistress
saw
an
apparition.
Jeremy
Taylor
tells
of
a
dog
which
got
quite
used
to
a
ghost
that
often
appeared
to
his
master,
and
used
to
follow
it.
In
"The
Lady
in
Black,"
a
dog
would
jump
up
and
fawn
on
the
ghost
and
then
run
away
in
a
fright.
Mr.
Wesley's
mastiff
was
much
alarmed
by
the
family
ghost.
Not
to
multiply
cases,
dogs
and
other
animals
are
easily
affected
by
whatever
it
is
that
makes
people
think
a
ghost
is
present,
or
by
the
conduct
of
the
human
beings
on
these
occasions.
Absurd
as
the
subject
appears,
there
are
stories
of
the
ghosts
of
animals.
These
may
be
discussed
later;
meanwhile
we
pass
from
appearances
of
the
living
or
dying
to
stories
of
appearances
of
the
dead.
