The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·
Andrew Lang
220
The
contagion,
to
be
sure,
also
reached
two
distinguished
captains
in
the
navy,
but
not
till
one
of
them
was
told
about
disturbances
which
had
not
previously
disturbed
him.
If
this
explanation
be
true,
it
casts
an
unusual
light
on
the
human
imagination.
Physical
science
has
lately
invented
a
new
theory.
Disturbances
of
this
kind
are
perhaps
"seismic,"--caused
by
earthquakes!
(See
Professor
Milne,
in
The
Times,
21st
June,
1897.)
