Sydney,
no
date.
{144}
Phantasms,
ii.,
586,
quoting
(apparently)
the
Buckingham
Gazette
of
the
period.
{145a}
Oddly
enough
a
Mr.
William
Soutar,
of
Blairgowrie,
tells
a
ghost
story
of
his
own
to
the
S.P.R.!
{145b}
I
put
them
for
convenience
at
the
foot.--W.

{146a}
The
dogs
in
all
these
towns
(farms)
of
Mause
are
very
well
accustomed
with
hunting
the
fox.
{146b}
Blair
(Blairgowrie)
is
the
kirk-town
of
that
parish,
where
there
is
also
a
weekly
market:
it
lies
about
a
mile
below
Middle
Mause
on
the
same
side
of
the
river.
{146c}
Knockhead
is
within
less
than
half
a
mile
of
Middle
Mause,
and
the
Hilltown
lies
betwixt
the
two.
We
see
both
of
them
from
our
window
of
Craighall
House.
{148a}
This
George
Soutar
died
about
two
or
three
years
ago,
and
was
very
well
known
to
William.
{148b}
The
Isle
is
a
spot
of
ground
in
the
wood
of
Rychalzie,
about
a
mile
above
Middle
Mause,
on
the
same
side
of
the
river.
{149a}
Glasclune
is
a
gentleman
of
the
name
of
Blair,
whose
house
lies
about
three-quarters
of
a
mile
south-west
from
Middle
Mause.
{149b}
He
said
the
voice
answered
him
as
if
it
had
been
some
distance
without
the
door.
{150}
Besides
the
length
of
time
since
the
murder
was
committed,
there
is
another
reason
why
all
the
bones
were
not
found,
viz.,
that
there
is
a
little
burn
or
brook
which
had
run
for
the
space
of
twenty
years,
at
least,
across
upon
the
place
when
the
bones
were
found,
and
would
have
carried
them
all
away
had
it
not
been
that
the
bush,
at
the
side
of
which
they
were
buried,
had
turned
the
force
of
the
stream
a
little
from
off
that
place
where
they
lay,
for
they
were
not
more
than
a
foot,
or
at
most
a
foot
and
a
half,
under
ground,
and
it
is
only
within
these
three
years
that
a
water-spate
has
altered
the
course
of
the
burn.
