The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·
Andrew Lang
55
Mrs.
Weiss's
story
is
corroborated
by
Mr.
Blanchard,
who
heard
the
story
"a
few
days
after
the
event".
Mrs.
C.
has
read
Mrs.
Weiss's
statement,
"and
in
so
far
as
I
can
remember
it
is
quite
correct".
Mr.
C.
remembers
nothing
about
it;
"he
declares
that
he
has
no
recollection
of
it,
or
of
any
matters
outside
his
business,
and
knowing
him
as
I
do,"
says
Mrs.
Weiss,
"I
do
not
doubt
the
assertion".
Mr.
C.
must
be
an
interesting
companion.
The
nurse
remembers
that
after
the
birth
of
the
baby
Mrs.
C.
called
Mr.
C.'s
attention
to
"the
doctor's
necktie,"
and
heard
her
say,
"Why,
I
know
him
by
mamma's
description
as
the
doctor
she
saw
in
her
dreams".
{48}
The
only
thing
even
more
extraordinary
than
the
dream
is
Mr.
C.'s
inability
to
remember
anything
whatever
"outside
of
his
business".
Another
witness
appears
to
decline
to
be
called,
"as
it
would
be
embarrassing
to
him
in
his
business".
This
it
is
to
be
Anglo-Saxon!
We
now
turn
to
a
Celtic
dream,
in
which
knowledge
supposed
to
be
only
known
to
a
dead
man
was
conveyed
to
his
living
daughter.
