The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·
Andrew Lang

"'On
the
Saturday
after,
as
I
was
at
my
own
sheep-cots
putting
in
my
sheep,
it
appeared
to
me
again
just
after
daylight,
betwixt
day
and
skylight,
and
upon
saying
these
words,
"Come
to
the
spot
of
ground
within
half
an
hour,"
it
just
disappeared;
whereupon
I
came
home
to
my
own
house,
and
took
up
a
staff
and
also
a
sword
off
the
head
of
the
bed,
and
went
straight
to
the
place
where
it
used
formerly
to
appear
to
me;
and
after
I
had
been
there
some
minutes
and
had
drawn
a
circle
about
me
with
my
staff,
it
appeared
to
me.
And
I
spoke
to
it
saying,
"In
the
name
of
God
and
Jesus
Christ,
what
are
you
that
troubles
me?"
and
it
answered
me,
"I
am
David
Soutar,
George
Soutar's
brother.
{148a}
I
killed
a
man
more
than
five-and-thirty
years
ago,
when
you
was
new
born,
at
a
bush
be-east
the
road,
as
you
go
into
the
Isle."
{148b}
And
as
I
was
going
away,
I
stood
again
and
said,
"David
Soutar
was
a
man,
and
you
appear
like
a
dog,"
whereupon
it
spoke
to
me
again,
saying,
"I
killed
him
with
a
dog,
and
therefore
I
am
made
to
speak
out
of
the
mouth
of
a
dog,
and
tell
you
you
must
go
and
bury
these
bones".
Upon
this
I
went
straight
to
my
brother
to
his
house,
and
told
him
what
had
happened
to
me.
