AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Ghost tale recounted to a small gathering of male friends in London in 1874 by an officer later killed in the Zulu wars; of his adoption by an uncle living in Cornwall, the loss of his will, and the appearance of his ghost to his nephew to show him its location. Tone of male camaraderie and club talk pervades this otherwise straightforward ghost tale. (PB)
