AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Tale from Virginia of a maiden aunt's loss of reason in her youth. On a visit to Harper's Ferry she spent the night in an old cabin and was locked in for several hours with an escaped maniac. Better than the usual 'confrontation with a madman' tale because the setting and situation are varied. (PB)
