The Book of Dreams and Ghosts

This
kind
of
evidence
is
thought
good
enough
on
the
negative
side.
It
certainly
would
not
be
accepted
by
any
sane
person
for
the
affirmative
side.
If
what
is
called
psychical
research
has
no
other
results,
at
least
it
enables
us
to
perceive
the
fallacies
which
can
impose
on
the
credulity
of
common-sense.
In
preparing
this
collection
of
tales,
I
owe
much
to
Mr.
W.
A.
Craigie,
who
translated
the
stories
from
the
Gaelic
and
the
Icelandic;
to
Miss
Elspeth
Campbell,
who
gives
a
version
of
the
curious
Argyll
tradition
of
Ticonderoga
(rhymed
by
Mr.
Robert
Louis
Stevenson,
who
put
a
Cameron
where
a
Campbell
should
be);
to
Miss
Violet
Simpson,
who
found
the
Windham
MS.
about
the
Duke
of
Buckingham's
story,
and
made
other
researches;
and
to
Miss
Goodrich
Freer,
who
pointed
out
the
family
version
of
"The
Tyrone
Ghost".
