Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Border Tales At a late hour of the night, two friends sat together over a dying fire. "I have given you my experience of the supernatural," said the first; "now, let me have yours." The other shook his head. "I have none to give." And, after a pause, he continued, "You forget, S., that I am the child of a scientific age. For me, belief has one basis, and one alone - the evidence of the senses. I believe in what I can see, touch, hear; and anything else in which I am to believe must be deduced from this by a process of reasoning which I can test or check. Now, I have never seen a ghost; ergo I don't believe in ghosts." "And you discredit the evidence of those who say they have?"

Yet the actual commencement of that drear, barren ex panse was fully ten miles distant, while all about where he rode the conformation was irregular, comprising narrow valleys and swelling mounds, with here and there a sharp ravine, riven from the rock, and invisible until one drew up startled at its very brink.

Download or read book Border Ghost Stories Classic Reprint written by Howard Pease and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Border Ghost Stories Certain places, said Stevenson, cry out for a story, and Scott, in any new surroundings, straightway invented an appropriate tale, if there were not already a story or tradition in existence. One might even believe that the place itself tells its own tale to the sympathetic imagination. Thus Mr. Bligh Bond in his book, The Gate of Remembrance, implies that the whisperings of the genius loci enabled him to make his astonishing discovery of the lost Edgar Chapel at Glastonbury Abbey. 'Multa modis simulacra videt volitantia miris, Et varias audit voces, fruiturque Deorum Colloquio, atque imis Acheronta affatur Avernis.' The scene of the following ghost stories usually becomes manifest in the text, but it might be mentioned that 'Castle Ichabod' stands for Seaton Delaval, that the 'Lord Warden's Tomb is a reminiscence of Kirkby Stephen, and that 'The Cry of the Peacock' is a suggestion from the Vale of Mallerstang.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Frontier Knight: A Story of Early Texan Border-Life The sun was shining gloriously across level sweeps of blue grass meadow-land, and sending its beams through the windows of a plain, substantial, country house, where it made squares of brightness on the whitewashed walls, sharply outlining the shadows, and touching to gold the fair hair of a girl who sat motionless on a low stool near the window. She was thinking intently and did not heed the entrance of an older girl who glanced at her with a smile and began to busy herself about the room. Finally the girl at the window gave a deep sigh and stretched her hands above her head. "Oh, is it dinner time, Christine?" she said. "Very near," was the reply. "What a brown study you were in, Alison; you must have been miles away." "And so I was. I must decide, you know." "Yes, I do know." There was a serious note in Christine's voice. "And have you decided?" she asked after a pause. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book My Host the Enemy and Other Tales written by Frank Welles Calkins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Host the Enemy, and Other Tales: Sketches of Life and Adventure on the Border Line of the West The incidents of actual adventure upon our remote frontiers have often been of a startling nature, sur passing even the inventions of the fiction writer. Out of the experience of a boyhood spent in the upper Missouri country, and ten years of after life as plains man and mountaineer, this little volume of stories is written. In it the writer has attempted to preserve the true spirit of adventure and the real atmosphere of our later American frontier. Many of the inci dents related were oi actual occurrence, and in two or three instances I am indebted to western newspapers for the materials of the story. In one of these narra tives, marked in the index, there is an adaptation of a pioneer's story so simply and earnestly told that it carried in its atmosphere the best evidence of truth.
