True Irish Ghost Stories, Compiled by St. John D. Seymour, Fiction, Fairy Tales, Folk Tales, Legends & Mythology, Ghost, Horror

On October 30, the first answers reached me. Within a fortnight I had sufficient material to make a book; within a month I had so much material that I could pick and choose -- and more was promised. . . .
