The Book of Dreams and Ghosts

"'On
the
second
Monday
of
December,
1730,
as
I
was
coming
from
Woodhead,
a
town
(farm)
in
the
ground
of
Drumlochy,
it
appeared
to
me
again
in
the
same
place
just
about
sky-setting;
and
after
it
had
passed
me
as
it
was
going
out
of
my
sight,
it
spoke
with
a
low
voice
so
that
I
distinctly
heard
it,
these
words,
"Within
eight
or
ten
days
do
or
die,"
and
it
thereupon
disappeared.
No
more
passed
at
that
time.
On
the
morrow
I
went
to
my
brother,
who
dwells
in
the
Nether
Aird
of
Drumlochy,
and
told
him
of
the
last
and
of
all
the
former
appearances,
which
was
the
first
time
I
ever
spoke
of
it
to
anybody.
He
and
I
went
to
see
a
sister
of
ours
at
Glenballow,
who
was
dying,
but
she
was
dead
before
we
came.
As
we
were
returning
home,
I
desired
my
brother,
whose
name
is
James
Soutar,
to
go
forward
with
me
till
we
should
be
passed
the
place
where
it
used
to
appear
to
me;
and
just
as
we
had
come
to
it,
about
ten
o'clock
at
night,
it
appeared
to
me
again
just
as
formerly;
and
as
it
was
passing
over
some
ice
I
pointed
to
it
with
my
finger
and
asked
my
brother
if
he
saw
it,
but
he
said
he
did
not,
nor
did
his
servant,
who
was
with
us.
It
spoke
nothing
at
that
time,
but
just
disappeared
as
it
passed
the
ice.
