Mr. Bettinson heard "strange nois- " 'and, anxious to ascertain their cause, olimbed up through a trap door under the slanting roof, and, i rummaging about among the beams found the parchment under a piece of loose wood. At first Mr. Bettinson thought it was a will, owing to its phraseology and the references to "last will and testament," with the mention of valu- able "goods and chattels." But ex. perts who have seen it declare it to be the ancient grant of probate by the Archbishop of Canterbury, once at- tached to the will of John Cave. When the tidings of this discovery sorcad two women-- Miss Morris and |, Mrs. Russell-living in the village of Binoy, were much interested, for they had o'ten told of their super natural experiences in the very house. "I know I cotild not be mistaken," Miss Morris said yesterday. "and now that I have heard of the. discovery of this document I am sure what I saw was really a ghost. "When ~ the Fullards--Mes.

"Then 1 put my head vnder the clothes, and when. I dared to look again she was gone, "I could mot sleep, and next morn- ing I told my hostess T was ill. and could not stop, and 1 was driven straight home. "Others I have heard. can tell of up- Cemay noises at might there--the sound of con being shaken in a sieve by old Jobn Cave himself." A similar story 'was told by Mrs, Russell: "1 went to the house," she said, "as a dressmaker. to make costumes for the Misses Fullard. "As thers were many guests, T was asked if T had any objection to sleepn- ing in what I now know to have been the 'ghost chamber.'
