The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·
Andrew Lang
118
I
leave
the
reader
to
consider
of
the
extraordinary
strangeness
of
the
relation.
The
reader,
considering
the
exceeding
strangeness
of
the
relation,
will
observe
that
we
have
now
reached
"great
swingeing
falsehoods,"
even
if
that
opinion
had
not
hitherto
occurred
to
his
mind.
But
if
he
thinks
that
such
stories
are
no
longer
told,
and
even
sworn
to
on
Bible
oath,
he
greatly
deceives
himself.
In
the
chapter
on
"Haunted
Houses"
he
will
find
statements
just
as
hard
narrated
of
the
years
1870
and
1882.
In
these,
however,
the
ghosts
had
no
purpose
but
mischief.
{118}
We
take
another
"ghost
with
a
purpose".
