The Book of Dreams and Ghosts

Pat
now
telephoned
to
Mr.
Hoffman,
Coroner
of
Dubuque,
who
found
the
old
clothes
in
the
back
yard
of
the
local
morgue.
They
were
wrapped
up
in
a
bundle.
Receiving
this
news,
Pat
went
to
Dubuque
on
February
9,
where
Mr.
Hoffman
opened
the
bundle
in
Pat's
presence.
Inside
the
old
grey
shirt
was
found
a
pocket
of
red
stuff,
sewn
with
a
man's
long,
uneven
stitches,
and
in
the
pocket
notes
for
thirty-five
dollars.
The
girl
did
not
see
the
body
in
the
coffin,
but
asked
about
the
old
clothes,
because
the
figure
of
her
father
in
her
dream
wore
clothes
which
she
did
not
recognise
as
his.
To
dream
in
a
faint
is
nothing
unusual.
