on his seat till morning, when he told his landlord the occurrence of the night, and declared that unless they could find him other apartments he would leave them that very day. The honest people were disinclined to part with him and agreed to accommodate him on the ground-floor. About _twelve months after this_, he went out on a market day for the purpose of purchasing some provisions, and when he returned, he heard that his old room was taken; but what was his surprise to find in the new lodger the very form, with the very same dress that had so terrified him a year before! The man was then very ill: he died in a few weeks, and the circumstances were without _any exception_ the same as those which my friend had witnessed. This is one of those cases in which it is extremely difficult to ascertain the design of the appearance. I should much like to know what conjecture you would form, as to the _modus_ and end of such a singular incident. Of the veracity of the narrator it was impossible for me to doubt. As this minister is still _living_ I am not at liberty to mention his name. Pray excuse the freedom of thus addressing you, and believe me to be Madam, with every sentiment of respect and esteem, Yours, very truly, Mrs. C. Crowe. R. I. O. * * * * * LETTER III. _Gloucestershire, June 21, 1854._ MADAM, As I find that another communication will not be unacceptable, I proceed to detail a few cases. My first relates to the minister, a part of whose history I have given you, and belongs to the class of prophetic dreams. When he had resolved to study for the ministry and through the influence of friends, had obtained admission to a Dissenting College; as the day affixed for his departure drew near, he was filled with anxiety, from the fact that he had not even money to pay his travelling expenses.
