Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Keepsake Stories is the title given to 3 short stories by Sir Walter Scott which appeared in The Keepsake For 1829, a literary annual published for Christmas 1828. The short stories were entitled "My Aunt Margaret's Mirror," "The Tapestried Chamber" (or, "The Lady in the Sacque"), and "Death of the Laird's Jock." My Aunt Margaret's Mirror: Sir Philip, who had married for money and quarrelled with his brother-in-law, determined on the declaration of war in 1702 to join the Duke of Marlborough's army in Flanders as a volunteer. Receiving no tidings of him for many months, Lady Jemima resolved to consult a doctor from Padua, who had the reputation of being able to show his visitors their absent friends, and what they were doing. Accordingly she and her sister, disguised as soldiers' wives, went to him secretly, when he at once told them their real names and the information they desired. The Tapestried Chamber or, The Lady in the Sacque: This is a ghost story. While travelling through the western counties, the general's attention was attracted by a picturesquely situated old castle, and, on inquiry at the inn where he changed horses, he learnt that its owner was a nobleman who had been his schoolfellow. He accordingly determined to call upon his lordship; and, having been persuaded to be his guest for a week, he was conducted at bedtime to an old-fashioned room, hung with tapestry, but comfortably furnished, and well lighted by two large candles and a blazing fire. Death of the Laird's Jock: Armstrong had been known during his father's lifetime as the Laird's Jock, or son; and being possessed of great strength and courage, had distinguished himself in the use of a two-handed sword, bequeathed to him by a Saxon outlaw, in many of the single combats which took place between the English and Scottish borderers during the reign of Queen Elizabeth.
